Besides studies, he worked in lands on holidays and learnt agriculture at his young age, which was very useful to him in later years. He entered the State Government servie in Tamil Nadu and he was retired in 2001. His duties in the Panchayat Raj and Rural Development Department enabled him to serve at several stations across the State. As an Extension Officer, he could have close contact with the masses, especially in rural areas, and get firsthand knowledge of the state of their lives. He gained experience in divese activities including officer administration. He was an honest official all along his career. He now feels quite nostalgic for the department that made him a mature man.Since 1970, he has taught English to students as a service and for his own pleasure. Since 1995, he has been conducting 'spoken English' classes for graduates and employees. He says that Shakespeare's sonnet no. 107 has goaded him on writing books, resulting in this debut work. He is a strict vegetarian and averse to killing of any animal or bird. Contents: Contents, Preface 7, 1. Religion and Caste System 9, 2. Terrorism and its Impact on People 39, 3.
