     While Padmabhushan Acharya Mamidipoodi Venkatarangayyagaru the then
     professor of politics/history/economics and what not by the Andhra
     University, Waltair with an Honorary Doctorate, the gentleman who read the
     address addressed Acharya Venkatarangayyagaru as follows:

	  "By honoring Prof. Venkatarangayyagaru with an Honorary Doctorate
	  today, we are honoring ourselves."

				     (told by my father Mr. P.V. Rama Sastry,
				       student of Acharya Venkatarangayyagaru).

    That incident reminds me today and I can the same today after having known
    the great news that Andhra Kesari Sri Tanguturi Prakasam Pantulugaru's
    statue was unveiled by Prime Minister Narasimha Raogaru:

	 "By unveiling the statue of Andhra Kesari Prakasam Pantulugaru, we all
	 have honored ourselves!"

    It is Sri P.V. Narasimha Rao who deserves credit for this.
    Atleat the glory of Prakasam Pantulu is evergreen and Andhra Kesari is
    IMMORTAL.

    I am moved by this and my joys know no bounds.
    I take this as an opportunity to post a brief biography of Andhra Kesari to
    refresh the memories of all Telugu netters.
