Notes on the meeting on December 1, 2010

Dear Friends, 

Vice President Venugopal said that there is a Sanskrit shloka which brings out the power of your tongue. “The tongue brings us wealth and friends,” he said. “If your tongue is bad, people will drift away from you. The tongue brings you enemies and controversies. “This clearly shows the importance of proper communication. Those who talk well, people are willing to listen to them.”

Table Topics was by Venugopal. Subjects included the Nira Radia tapes and whether women should be given separate rooms and toilets in the offices of the municipal corporations in Kerala.

Grilling was of Harikrishnan.
