It is needless to say that the inspiration for the headline of this article is derived from the well-known book titled ‘The Discovery of India,’ written by Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru, our first Prime Minister, while he was in jail. Likewise, the inspiration for me to write this article has come from a very rare book on Nehru titled ‘Nehru - The Lotus Eater from Kashmir’ by famous journalist D.F. Karaka, who was also the Editor of an independent anti-communist Weekly of Bombay ‘The Current.’ As I remember, ‘The Current’ was considered an antidote to its rival pro-communist Weekly ‘Blitz’ edited by R.K. Karanjia. Let it be.
