It was an evening. A man, whose voice was weakened by illness, called me.It was T R Janarthanam, a tireless worker forTamils across the world. He was back to his hometown Coimbatore, but for a treatment after he was left partially paralysed. The close associate of former Tamil Nadu Chief minister C N Annadurai and an active student leader during Anti-Hindi agitations in Coimbatore, Janarthanam shares with me his youthful political days for the New Indian Express.
