I was invited by the Batticaloa Medical Association as their Chief Guest for their annual sessions held on 3rd, 4th and the 5th of August 2012. I was to give the opening address and another talk on 'Being a clinician'. I chose as my topic for the Chief Guests Address 'The Call of Duty'. It was a very enjoyable time and the hospitality of my hosts had no bounds. I am attaching some of the pictures taken there.

Prof 'Sinna's statement

'Prof Sinna' incident.
Prof Sinna happened to be in a crowd who were discussing about a recent cricket match between the West Indies and England which had ended in a draw in the early 1960s. 'Sinna' made the following observation:-
'I am sure that if the whole of India had played (instead of only the West Indies) against England they would have beaten the fellows and all that'.
