    Muddu and I started our literary journey around the same time. If i recall our early days, both of us shared a single room at Old Louella Hostel (Now St Aloysius IT section)which he and Joe Quadros rented out for Rs 15 a month and I visited them whenever I missed my last bus to Kinnigoli. He is a great treasure of knowledge and there should not be any retirement for him. Its just beginning of a new life. Muddu, Tulu world awaits you and you must take up the leadership to get this language into the VIIIth schedule of our constitution. With your literary zeal its possible and we are with you in this mission. Best of luck.
