  • Slajd: 2
  • THE story was narrated to Ganesh by a young man, Mahendra by name. He was a junior supervisor in a firm which offered on hire supervisors at various types of construction sites: factories, bridges,dams, and so on. Mahendra’s job was to keep an eye on the activities at the work site.

  • Not a day passed without Iswaran recounting some storypacked with adventure, horror and suspense. Whether the storywas credible or not, Mahendra enjoyed listening to it becauseof the inimitable way in which it was told. Iswaran seemed tomore than make up for the absence of a TV in Mahendra’sliving quarters
