Grenade & Ram Mohammad Thomas




The picture is of a grenade, cut into half.

The place where I am currently put up, is owned by a retd. Colonel. The other half of the grenade is with a jawan who saved all their lives by throwing back a grenade at the LTTE attackers in Sri Lanka.

It sits proudly as a table top in his office.

Reading a book called "Q & A", by Vikas Swarup. Tight read hai. The lead character is called Ram Mohammad Thomas and he has just won one billion ruppees in a TV show. The TV producers think he has cheated (more to do with their inability to pay so much right now), he thinks he got lucky because they asked him 12 questions, whose answers were known to him. How and why is what the book is all about.
