    I never knew anything about him till now but after watching this I'm really convinced that we indeed lost a great parliamentarian.

      I miss that english too.
      It was just not the English but also a certain education of values. That of a gentleman.
      Today you can find english speaking morons from iits n iims n what nots.... who's perspective in life is nothing more or beyond than themselves .
      Great man indeed.
      Could have been a great inspiration for the future gen, but this gen is least interested or inspiring.
