Whoever makes an attempt to get an out of turn hearing of our cases in the SC needs to be appreciated and it does not matter to which group he belongs so long as such an action is genuine. In this, ego should not interfere as long as the fight is for a common cause. It is not the question of who is erudite - I or you.
- Some one suggested why not we petition to the Chief justice or the registrar pleading for a merciful consideration for an earlier hearing of our case highlighting the fact that one after the other among the pensioners clan is swiftly leaving this world and the rest living with borrowed time. However any such action needs caution for it might prejudice the mind of the Hon Judges who is to hear our case. If the letter is couched in a language which would invoke sympathy well and good.
Now that the Thirukkural day is celebrated all over the country it is apt for me to mention here what the Thirukkural says in this context :
Think well and then venture to do a thing
It is folly indeed to say 'we shall think about it after we ventured in it'
Patience we had in abundance as evident all these years.That patience should not ultimately result into eternal rest.
