Parting sting of White Cobra
 
 
Kishore Anjaria, journalist turned PR man is retiring this month. He has sent a thank you note to all friends and acquaintances in the media. His letter reminds one of his pen name White Cobra. Anjaria who is always dressed in white continued to write even after joining the government and one of pen name was white cobra. 
Our journalist friends remember for the vehicle had kept exclusively for journalists' entertainment. In mega size it was written on the vehicle VIP Journalists. It was telling the world who was among the journalists taking free ride. After 2002 riots, he started writing word OM in the tender notices of the Board. Modi had a tough time when Advani drew his attention to the Hindu pattern of tenders and K Kailashnathan, the then secretary Water Supply had really a difficult time to defend his blued eyed PR man in white. 
In the letter Anjaria has thanked all for their cooperation during 22 years of his service and talked about the recommendation letters senior IAS officers gave him for his work in the Gujarat Water Supply & Sewerage Board. He had saved Rs eight crore through his prudent policies. 
Anjaria was transferred to the remote tribal district Dangs when V S Gadhvi took over the Board. It was certainly a punishment transfer for Anjaria who is Joint Director Publicity, the only officer on the post. 
And since then he is on leave. He had accumulated leave of 500 days enough to be on leave till retirement, he says. In his thanks letter, he has pointed out that he had become victim of vindictive attitude of some vested interests. The way I have been treated will honest people think twice before doing good work. 
He ends his letter referring to the Chief Minister Narendra Modi. He says Modi holds chintan shivirs and asks government staff to be public oriented. Still such things happen even in his government! 
Anjaria, a bachelor, has decided to work with some publication to be active in the retired life. Certainly with Cobra sting!!!!
