Peace Through Knowledge

Byline: Mahmood Shaam Samanta was only four when his father died. At that age, he did not know of death or of the miseries and sorrows it brings. In a restaurant at Bhubaneswar capital of Orissa in which we sat, he narrated to me a very painful and extremely sad story of what he had been through of how he had to go to relatives, from door to door to get food for himself, his mother, sisters and brothers.
