namaskAramulu!

This is little too much for me to wait for someone to 
answer this.  If Bachoti Sridhara gAru had commented
on only chando-non-chando issues I wouldn't have wasted
my time on this.  I want to be very clear about what I am
saying... so I write my comments in Telugu only.  Please
pardon me for the inconvenience in reading this post.
I may be excused... since I post very rarely here.

>It should be chandO-free. (Better if there are no
>guruvulu and laghuvulu).
   "pAdindE pAtarA pAcipalla dAsari".  I am bored of
   reading this chandas debate.  I am not touching
   this. 

>It should be about current issues.
