Hi folks,

Following is one of the poem penned by our esteemed Prime Minister celibate/bachelor Shri Atal
Bihari Vaajpayi ji.

Translation is by your friendly neighbourhood. Corrections invited.

I had already posted to the list the english poem titled "ignited minds" penned by our esteemed
celibate/ bachelor President APJ Abdul Kalam ji.

Homi Ji has company now.

One good point is that Musharraf can't beat our veterans at it.

Regards.
-Rawat
