I would urge Mervyn Maciel and other readers to watch the video below to
see what Piyush Goyal, Hon Railway Minister has to say about education in
Don Bosco Schools in general and Don Bosco's, Matunga in particular.

I remember the time Bal Thackeray ‘s grandchildren were all going to The 
Scottish School (formerly Scottish Orphanage) run by the Indian Anglican 
Christians while he was railing against English education and Christian schools.

At least Shashi Tharoor is grateful.

I remember too, an occasional personal meeting with some Maharashtra cabinet 
ministers, Shiv Sena’s Gajanan Kirtikar for instance who was Minister of State 
for Home, and learning that I was from Canada, they would instantly light up 
about some relative they had in Toronto and how they were a product of Bombay’s 
Catholic education, making an effortless switch from Marathi to good English.

[Goanet] Shashi Tharoor

SHASHI THAROOR
By: Bennet Paes

It seems a slight departure, and a genuine one at that, from Nehru’s policies 
on world stage, create a hue and cry in Indian media.. Shashi Tharoor may be in 
Congress party and a Minister in its government, but talking on an 
international forum, or rather commenting on another speaker’s views honestly, 
is far from being disrespectful to the party. Vallabhai Patel too disagreed 
with Nehru on several issues, but they did stick together in the same party 
until the end. The PM and the Gandhi’s should better remember.

And what surprises me most is that the media, in their blind adulation of a 
Nehru, or of a Tendulkar, get irked whenever a word falls out of line of their 
perception. Instead, they should take a tip from Shashi Tharoor who, having 
been second in rank at the U.N. and having missed the top spot by a hair’s 
breath, only mirrored an aspect of  India’s foreign policy then, as seen 
through the eyes of the world at large. A case in point is the so-called 
liberation of Goa. He was bold enough to say that, and we need politicians like 
him in our government – not henchmen.

Shashi Tharoor is stupid to join the Congress party. He doesnt have the guts to 
hold on to
his views because his perks comes from the congress. He is used to a lavish 
lifestyle flying all the time, and staying in 5 star comfort all paid for 
through tax payer's money. The congress is well-known to be a party where only
yes-men ship is required, so what is the big deal? What new are we talking 
about here?
