SUNDAY MUSINGS :
Social Media was abuzz with the well deserved praises showered on Syed Akbaruddin , our Ambassador to the UN for the excellent way in which he answered the queries from the reporters from various countries including Pakistan. I also watched the short video clipping going viral on the social Media and was quite impressed by the way he carried himself. His body language and gestures were quite in line with the behaviour, conduct and stance that is expected of an Ambassador and more so of a Career Diplomat. I have been an ardent admirer of Syed Akbaruddin and Navtej Sarna who have been spokesmen for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in the past.The measured talk with the carefully chosen words has always enamoured me. I wish our political representatives and leaders took a cue and exercised the same restraint and made discreet utterances and statements.
Yesterday was also the sad and shocking demise of Ms.Neelam Sharma, a well known , familiar and celebrated anchor of the Doordarshan News for the past more than two decades. The who's who of the Doordarshan and Prasar Bharati came up with rich tributes to her. A winner of Naari Shakti Award only this year, she herself was no less than a Tejaswini of the program she hosted to make us familiar with the Women who made their mark in various fields of activity. She was a native of some village in tehsil Bhoranj of Himachal Pradesh, so we are told.
Our humble tributes to the wonderful Anchor and presenter , who will be remembered for long !
