16th May

Completed morning program. Visited Dental wing of CGHS  in Safdarjung hospital..In chamber from 12.30 to 4 pm.
The Delhi High Court delivered a path-breaking  judgement in Parveen Begam'case on 15th May 2012. It gives a helping hand to a needy person who may not have a kidney donor in the family. He can have it now from outside the family. 
Pratap Bhanu Mehta writes in I.E. of date in the center  page in the context of a cartoon in a NCERT book and din over it in the parliament : "Parliament is now a body of fragile selves. They won't draw a sword for liberty..... We have a public culture in which the definition of what counts as offensive rapidly expands, more fetters are put on thought and more excuses found to exercise control.  It reflects the ultimate triumph of sullenness over humor, cowardice over liberty, conformism over individuality." 
We  should seriously debate this and take corrective action, if necessary.
Retired to sleep at 10.30 pm.
