Former PMs

Sir, - The former Prime Ministers have floated their own informal club. They meet occasionally to discuss current affairs. It is a good practice but one cannot expect any impact out of it on the administration, as all the former Prime Ministers are no longer mass leaders.

Mr. H. D. Deve Gowda was having followers in southern parts of Karnataka but not now. Mr. I. K. Gujral and Mr. V. P. Singh had never had mass base. Perhaps Mr. Chandra Shekhar may have some pockets of support. Their meeting somehow is attracting a lot of media attention.

V. A. Gopala,

Bangalore
