Dear Ranju: I am ashamed to read your silly questions like "was it Jatin Mali or Brindaban??" When was he Edu. Comm.??? The basic thing Assamese IAS/ACS officers follow him is to have "back-bone of their own" in the complex political system of our country/state. And Mr. Ashok Saikia had it 'straight'. Moreover, he was one of the very few Bureaucrats who could stand upto the politicans of any party. And that was one of the main reason, most of the politician respected him. That does not mean that all the politicain listened to him! Got it Ranju!

He was a one man army, who could demolish the lobbies of various other IAS groups and make a place in the centre of power. He had invested emotionally with a young struggling Vajpayee right from his college days and reaped huge dividend. These are lessons we must learn from his life. Being mere brilliant is not enough to succeed in today's world, One has to be intelligent with his investments, both emotional and financial. And in politics and power, loyalty is a hidden key that can unlock doors to unimaginable corridor lengths. Talk no ill of a departed soul. May his soul rest in peace! -manoj
