First of, I graciously thank Sammit ( I omit formalities here in keeping
with Shri. Khandeparkar's e-address) for the links to the bulky matters of
the books.
I am happy that Sammit has displayed his open mind here and hopefully we
shall have a clean, unbiased debate on this University issue.
Here is a beautiful inspirational story of how a poor girl overcomes adverse
circumstances.
