Spirit of Sinanan

The editor: I wish to thank our former Prime Minister and now Leader of the Opposition, the honourable Basdeo Panday, for publicly invoking the spirit of Ashford Sinanan so many times over the years and up to a few days ago which day marked twelve years since he left his mortal coil. Your invocations have been invaluable to me in my realisation of The Bengal’s immortality. I did not know to what extent you cared, even though I was aware that you sometimes shared the same bar table if not the same bar stools. Thank you, in service.
