'Whom to vote' by K.J.S.Chatrath

Congress Party has given tickets to Mr. Bansal & Mr. Ashok Chavan- Totally unacceptable

BJP has given tickets to those accused of instigating Muzzafarpur riots- Totally unacceptable

AAP: Only indulging in theatrics sans substance- Totally unacceptable

Left Parties: No where to be seen


Whom to vote?

My late father's 'Indian Chief' by K.J.S.Chatrath

Seing an advertisement of re-introduction of a motor cycle named 'Indian Chief' in the Indian market, my thoughts go to my late father- 'Sardar Sahib' Gurbux Singh Chatrath.

(My father is in a white jacket & Turra turban and Lala Amarnath is in a black suit. This photo was taken at the time of the MCC's match at Amritsar circa 1950.)

He was born on 15th April 1905 in Sialkot. He studied at the famous Government College Lahore. My grand father was so pleased at his performance in studies and his becoming the Captain of the Punjab University Gymnastics Team, that he bought him a new 'Indian Chief' motorcycle.He then studied Law at Lahore.

Till his death he used to frequently tell us how he used to move around Lahore on his 'Indian Chief' during 1924-27 when there were not many such motorcycles on the roads of the city.

Happy birthday, dear father and here is your 'Indian Chief'!
