    Fine gesture, and the photographs taken on the occassion of "World Heart Day - 2008" for the records. But the very same participants contribited filth by littering Jyothi Circle with empty plastic water bottles.A very UNFRIENDLY act and a disgrace to our environmentalists efforts by our Learned Doctors. This Nation already has too much of "show bazi" without any substance.
