Opinion - Letters to the Editor

Commendable

A.R. Venkatachalapathy’s effort of bringing to light letters and articles written by Subramania Bharati, published in The Hindu

between 1904 and 1916, and compiling his works in a book (March 30) is commendable. It is indeed a matter of pride for The Hindu
that it provided a forum to such a glorious nationalist and great poet to express his views when he was being hounded by the colonial police.

C.A.C. Murugappan,
Kothamangalam
It is clear from the report that even in the years of the all-powerful British Raj, The Hindu
accepted for publication, matter on national importance and those concerning social advancement. It did national service by publishing such letters.

I have a humble suggestion. Please publish Bharati’s letters for the present generation to learn more about history.

S. Chidambaresa Iyer,
Chennai
