FM falls – to Indian paparazzo

Presidents, Prime Ministers and Chief Ministers have been there. So have international dignitaries like Mrashal Tito, Nikita Krushchev and Queen Elizabeth. It is the place where you can meet Bangalore's literati. It is the Koshy’s restaurant in Bangalore. Our smart PC was there during the weekend to have a private dinner with his family. While trying to avoid a press photographer who was trying to shoot him, the FM slipped on the steps and had a fracture on his toe.

This is not how the FM is dressed always

Sometimes, rarely though, he is seen like this

It seems in Koshy’s he was not in his usual attire of white dhoti and white shirt and that must have attracted the journalist’s attention. Both the journalist and his paper have apologised to the minister.

TIOL wishes him a speedy recovery and hopes he will be back in action very soon.

Until tomorrow with more DDT

Have a nice day.
