Inbox flooded, Nobel laureate Venkatraman complains

Okay.

But ,  Pritish Nandy has some harsh words for Dr.Venki.


1.Win a Nobel and you think you are God. No one should attempt to access you, not even people who knew you once. Silly n arrogant. 
2.Indians may have over reacted in their enthusiasm to wish him for winning the Nobel. But thats no reason to be so ugly n shirty. 
3.Venkatraman Radhakrishnan may be a Nobel Prize winner but his reaction to Indians congratulating him is disgusting. Have some grace, man.


Alright ! Here are my observations on Pritish Nandy's comments .


1.Pritish is so naive that he never realized  Dr.Venki is an American citizen and not otherwise.
2.Pritish has TV shows every week honoring Indians scientists and researchers and thus has the right to ridicule Dr.Venki
3.Pritish was a Rajya Sabha MP which is considered a back door entrance to Indian Parliament , unlike Dr.Venki  who won his Nobel prize based on his research and hard work.
4.Indians have over reacted in their enthusiasm that they forgot to send congratulatory notes to other Nobel laureates /Winners
5.Indians have over reacted in their enthusiasm as they had flooded ISRO scientists inbox's on their once successful  Chandrayaan mission
6.Indians have over reacted in their enthusiasm that they eulogize cricket over other sports and they easily forget that Hockey is their national game
7.Indians have over reacted in their enthusiasm  because they are instantly connected to a nobel winning brown man with 23 syllables 
8.Indians have over reacted in their enthusiasm because it is easy for them to send an email to Dr.Venki  than sending a hand written note via snail mail
9.Indians have over reacted in their enthusiasm because they love spams  to their personal email accounts
10. Pritish Nandy  ,himself a Karmaveer Puraskaar Noble Laureate [ 2008 ] is plain silly and arrogant that he was not awarded the original Nobel :-\
