70TH BIRTHDAY FOR
OOMMEN CHANDY
'I am back to my work,'
said Kerala Chief Minister Oomen Chandy who refused to accept even a single cake to mark his 70th birthday Thursday,31st October,2013.'Oh no, I
do not believe in any celebrations and hence today (Thursday) will be like any
other day,' he said.'I have functions to attend at Kottayam and also at Kochi.
The rest period as asked by the doctors is over and hence I am back to my
work,' Chandy told IANS.Chandy was injured in stone-pelting Sunday when his convoy came under attack at Kannur by suspected CPI-M activists. He was discharged from hospital Tuesday.Chandy and his family Wednesday evening left for his home town in Kottayam.'He will return only late tonight or early tomorrow to his official residence here. Ever since he was injured in an attack by the CPI-M workers at Kannur Sunday, his official residence has been crowded and hence his decision to go away from here along with his entire family...,' said a close aide of Chandy.Since Wednesday afternoon, the number of visitors both from his constituency at Puthupally in Kottayam district and from his ancestral home near Thiruvalla in Pathanamthitta district has been increasing.
'He has given a direction that not a single cake should be accepted from anyone...because he knows if he accepts one, then he will have to accept hundreds,' added the aide.En route to Kottayam Wednesday night, the family spent some time in prayers at the famed St. Peter's and St. Paul's Orthodox Church, Parumala (Parumala Pally), a prominent parish church of the Malankara Orthodox Syrian Church, to which Chandy belongs.The chief minister and his family spent the night at the Kottayam guest house and Thursday morning all of them prayed at the St George Orthodox Church, located a stone's throw from his Puthupally residence.'His visit here was not expected but still a huge crowd had gathered to greet him at his home besides enquiring of his health,' said his personal assistant.

I have a couple of comments regarding the news of Hon. Chief Minister and about your blog.
1. Are you sure that the Chief Minister was attacked by CPI-M workers? I think it is very premature to publish allegations with out proper and credible evidences. Also I think it is the job of the Police and relevant law enforcement authorities to find out who attackers are.
2. I think your blog is too biased and it is projecting unfairly about you and your close family and often exaggerated.
3. I think it will be better for you spending more time in maintaining your garden (watering, fertilizing etc..) and looking after the family than maintaining this blog. From the photos in the blog, I can see that your garden and family need more of your time and attention (Definitely that will help maintaining your health and happiness) than you spending your time in publishing photos and copying news from the local media into your blog. I hope you are aware that plagiarism is serious offence.
4. I think there are enough prominent and reliable news media available and so there is no justification for your news blog.
Sorry for the about comments and I hope you will understand.
Thanks and regards
