A Congress leader who later became chief minister of Maharashtra was leading from the front to finish off the Brahmins. He attacked us, threw us away and grabbed the property. Later Grandpa lost his mental health and died. Grandma stayed their lifetime, worked as a maid to earn living, and till her last breath (1981) fought against system. Post retirement, my father settled down in Belagavi. Now I am in Goa, far away from my ancestors’ place.
