“As a student P. R. Collage, Kakinada. In 1938-40, I remember I had the good fortune of inviting and hearing Kolavennu Ramakotiwara Rau garu, and Adivi Bapiraju garu and Pattabhi Sitaramayya garu also. I have gone thro’ your “Downsizing of Bureaucracy” and try to give a gist of the article in our magazine. “A resurrection of the values of the National renaissance movement and freedom movement is the utmost need of the hour”

- Parakala Pattabhirama Rao, (Vijayawada)

“Your “Downsizing Bureaucracy” was superb. Specially the last line, and equally laudable was Dr K. V. Raghupati’s “Thoureau’s Concept of Man”

-Dr. Manas Bakshi, Bhadrakali, (West Bengal)

“May I congratulate you on your editorial “Downsizing Bureacracy” which is lively and urgently needed. I also fully agree with you and want our poets and writers to realise that the more we write or speak, the less we communicate. Brevity is always beautiful”

- R. K. Singh, Dhanbad

“Your editorials in TRIVENI give great plea­sure”

-Prof. D. S. Rao, Chennai

“Let me take this opportunity tell you how thoroughly I enjoyed reading your editorial on BUREAUCRACY. Your comments are highly interesting and realistic. Our bureaucracy has become an unbearable burden, hampering instead of helping our country’s progress. Remarks made by Lord Curzon, Trevor Fishlock, “The Washington Post”, and Winston Churchill are even more relevant today than in the past. “Writing on the Wall” by Shri Vemaraju Narasimha Rao is a beautiful blend of refined humour and sarcasm, depicting the constant war between ‘wall writers’ and wall owners, interspersed with tongue-in-cheek comments on scribblers who do their job under the cover of darkness, the kill-joy role of T. N. Seshan and Tagore’s warning against the narrow domestic walls!

- M. G. Narasimha Murthy, Hyderabad

“What a great length of service to the literary world? 73 years is by no means an ordinary achievement! Kindly accept my compliments. My prayer to the Almighty for TRIVENI to witness 100 years of publication. Editorial has a very strong message to the present day writers, in most of whom we unfortunately see as someone put it, “diarrhea of words and constipation of thoughts”. “Downsizing” in the light of increasing computerisation is a very widely talked about subject today. A new dimension is indeed brought out in “Downsizing Bureaucracy”.

- N. V Subbaraman, Chennai.

“I have gone through this issue (Vol 69/4) and found the material contained in it from cover to cover interesting and enlightening. Thanks for giving a thoughtful editorial” “Downsizing the bureaucracy”, besides articles by Sri V. N. Rao. Dr K. V. Raghupati. Sri C. Sadasivan and Dr. Sanjeev Dev”.

-Dr. D. C. Chembial, Maranda

“I am surprised at the amount of hard work you have put in bringing out successive volumes of this reputed journal”

-Ramesh K Srivastava, Jhansi.
