MADRAS, Ore. To the west, Mount Jefferson and the Three Sisters glowed a bright white against a clear blue sky. Just below us, winding down an otherwise unimpressive hill in the middle of the high desert, were five different trails, all filled with jumps, berms, concrete pavers and wood features. A mountain biker could spend most of a day here, climbing and then riding down a different trail packed with free-ride flavor.
Heartiest congrats to Dr Prakasa Rao Asavadi, who has been conferred with Padma Shri for the year 2021 in the field of Literature & Education (Sl. No. 22 in the Press Note of Government of India, Ministry of Home Affairs). It’s a befitting honour to a really deserving person. He has been my venerable literary friend for five years, though I had known about him much earlier. As his sincere & humble fan, I have been helping hin by nominating him in his as well as my name every year for the honour ever since 2017, and also helping him with self-nomination, and finally, it has fructified now. This is not to claim any credit for myself, for my role is only drafting, formatting, uploading, etc. Seeing that despite his literary and other distinctions, he was not being selected, some good souls must have duly put in a word about him to the selection committee. An SC (Madiga) gentleman, he hails from Penukonda, Anantapuram district of the backward Rayalaseema region of Andhra Pradesh. Thank
