Getting up *early* on sunday mornings and lazily gathering The News pages, all of them, and tossing them aside and skipping through the eye candy of Instep and skimming the headlines makes me finally go to the first article I would normally read for the day. And surprisingly, its by Aaker Patel, an experienced Indian journalist who probably emails his articles to The News every week. His thoughts are always so refreshing and genuine, apart from all thats happening in the world, never concerned about any bomb explosions, floods, killings, corruption, political anatomy et al. His words underline the true essence of what things normally come to mind when one thinks of LIFE. His words hold a special place for many of us who want to read something good, something a journalist should also observe while doing his journalism, since its not just about the sarkar, the awam and the hera-pheri we see everyday.
Keeping them simple, true, and intelligent, his articles are the best in TNS. Summarizing things in India and Pakistan with an obvious link. Dr. Farrukh Saleem is now second fiddle with his bold facts and figures.
Heres the link to his articles:
