    Dear Arvind and Shankar
    thanks for bringing this up
    Really interesting and was there not a recent move to remove his statue in Madras.
    Here's an intersting charector who was so impressed by India and hinduism He became a Hindu and was called Hindu Stuart

    Sri



    If I can stop one heart from breaking,I shall not live in vain;
    If I can ease one life the aching,Or cool one pain,
    Or help one fainting robin, Into his nest again,
    I shall not live in vain.
    Emily Dickinson

    With Regard to removing his statue..

    Long back Cho Ramaswamy's Novel - Koovam Nadikkarayile in 85,86 a Character Jaggu advises an aspiring leader RNR ..

    Start an agitation.. Ask for renaming the Thomas Manroe Statue ... Actually he was an Indian Soldier who fought British.. Tambaram Mannaru. Adatan Thomas Manroenu Mattitananunga.

    Tamilukaga porattam, Tamilanukkaga porattamnu arambi... Yaralayum eduttu pesa mudiyadu. Pera Mattina Unakku Vetri, Periya alayidalam. Illaina ada vachu niraya porattm pannalam.
