Introduction	I retired from Government of India, Ministry of Finance as Additional Controller General of Accounts. Had a career spanning over 30 years as public finance expert. Worked for International Monetary Fund in several countries as Financial Management Advisor. Settled in NOIDA, a satellite town of Delhi. These days busy giving final touch to a manuscript- a romance. It is my second book- the first one LALI was published in January 2008. Lali was a story of a Sikh family caught up between the ire of militant separatists and the communal frenzy. Friends, I started this blog in July 2008. There was a gap in between in posting stories in this blog because I was working on other volumes. I will keep on posting new stories in this blog. Friends, the fact is that I have been finding it difficult to get a publisher for my book and for the collection of stories. But I want to reach out to some readers and hence this mode. I will be grateful if my readers mail my blog reference to all their friends so that my stories reach more and more people. And last but not the least, I request my readers to help me find a publisher. Thanks.
