		<description><![CDATA[I remember reading an Arabian comic story of Aboo Kasim and his shoes. Aboo Kasim was a miser, who didn&#8217;t want to spend money for a second pair of shoes. So, he constantly mended his shoes on his own by striking nails and stitching wherever required. As time passed,  the leather-bound shoes turned to a [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Some days back, I happen to remember about this story, when I read about Prof. Eachara warrier somewhere. He fought with shadows around 3 decades to get any information about his son Rajan, who "disappeared" during the emergency (1976-77). The police caught him from his college (Regional Engineering college, Calicut, now known as NIT Calicut). It was known afterwards that he died in police custody at the kakkayam police camp and was burned. Kakkayam police camp is now notorious for the cruel modes of punishments employed there during emergency. Eachara Warrier wrote his autobiography about his struggle for justice, and the pain and suffering he and his family has undergone. Oru achante Orma kkurippukal (Memoirs of a father). You can read the translation of the book online here.]]></description>
