I, not very long ago, happened to attend a Rotary club meeting at Ghaziabad, Rotarians follow a practice of inviting an eminent person as chief guest and arrange for an address by him on some relevant topic followed by discussions. The chief guest for the evening had to speak on The Art of living' which has been a fashionable topic for quite some time. Somehow, the chief guest, an IRS officer could not make it. The host readily declared that we have an IPS officer with us who is working with Central Para Military Force 'CRPF and we request him to assume the role of the chief guest. I was in a fix, not having foreseen this twist of circumstance, I had come unprepared. Jokingly, I said-sorry, I am a propounder of the "art of dying'. I cannot speak on 'the art of living'. Many of those present in the audience assumd that I would be speaking on my experience in the police encounters or some such related issues.
