Meeting Kofi’s secretary

Shushma Swaraj has taken a strong exception to remarks by the Army Vice-Chief, Lt Gen K Pattabhiraman that the force could "do without women". We will soon see this gentleman as the head of home guards.

So far the Monday morning has not posed any threat to my sense of humor and I hope the week goes well for Soniaji and Rahul…so that my sense of humor stays that way.

Today, I am likely to meet author-diplomat Shashi Tharoor. Half of the women in Delhi want to meet him. Most of them think he is Kofi’s secretary. Most of them are likely to start reading his books now.
