    I still remember the day, when i was walking with my friends in the jail road, when a bike zoomed b/n us.We were shell shocked, i screamed and stopped him. We had an altercation, where i questioned his act and asked an explanation. I was in no mood to let go of him. He asked me my name, my college and just vroomed off. My college mates who were watching the scene came up to me and told that he was an ALL college president and a rally driver.I thought deep within that i was a dead meat now. After that incident we happened to come face to face many a times, there were cold vibes always. When one fine day he came and put his arms around my shoulders when we were sipping our tea in kadri hills.I was amazed, we shared a smile and let go off our differences. I never met him after that, and today i feel very sad to hear this news. Inna lillahi wa inna ilahi raji'un. May allah rest his soul in peace.

    It is shock of the year for me. One year Sr to me in Canara Boys/canara college and we used to be together in scouts. Two weeks back i met him in mangalore. All the people in mangalore must have watched Anand in Karnataka bank add which comes in local channels counting cash. Deep condolences from me and family for anand's death. May god give strenth to anand's family to sustain the shock. God may give more mental and physical strenth to Mr. Ullas rai, his elder brother at this situation.
