Veerapan

Hello World !!!
Tuesday morning nothing much happening.
Weather in Bangalore is lovely-its cold n' blisterry.
Its raining everyday for the last 3 days.
Veerapan is dead. Oh ! at last...
Its been really a long wait..
Cant imagine a forest bandit hiding for so long,
without being traced in these modern times with all
the sophosticated technology at hand.
But again I guess lotsa politicians are involved in protecting him.
No wonder they did'nt capture him alive.
Or they would be lotsa revelations.
But I guess Veerapan was a Robinhood of our times.
Looting from the rich to feed the poor.
Ciao !!!
