This refers to the Chinese Whisper (“Strictly business”, May 4) that commented with mild sarcasm on Gandhian Anna Hazare opting to travel by business class and not “cattle class” like Defence Minister A K Antony.
One should note the fact that Hazare has knee arthritis and suffers from severe pain. He is also on heavy medication. Even though he travels business class, he lives in a cattle shed, quite opposite to Antony who lives in a highly-subsidised government bungalow.
