Growth of TT in India in recent times is very heartening to see.My father PS Visvanathan, brought it from England in 1931 after he finished his ICS training of 3 years.Though he played all the games including Cricket,Foot Ball, Hocky,Tennis etc he felt that in a hot country like ours TT was more suited.He worked for promoting it till 1951,when he died in an Air Crash at Calcutta.He produced 2 National Champions also. Sivaraman and Tiruvengadam.
