Mani Shankar Aiyer-a snob or a loose cannon?


Mani Shankar Aiyer’s unwarranted and unsolicited comments are certain to create ripples of discomfort among the lots. The latest salvo being fired by him against sports minister Ajay Maken was supposed to be personal attack but has veered and yet again stirred a hornet’s nest as it not only questioned the credibility of Hansraj College and the quality of its students but has also put Stephens College’s students in poor light. He finds ‘dichotomous’ too big a word to be used by a student of Hansraj college. An uncalled for comment like this would blemish the reputation of his own alma mater as people tend to generalize opinions and because of one anomaly alumnus like him all Stephenians would be tagged as ‘snobs’.
