A Big Thank You
I don’t know if any Mariconians (as those who work for Marico fondly call themselves) will ever read this blog, but I’d like to throw a thank you their way. They gave me a desk, a computer, and a paycheck this summer to study whatever areas of Indian law fascinated me. I learned more than I expected to learn, not just about the whole of the Indian legal system, but some American law too. I exit India with a much greater love of the law than with which I entered India. And I wasn’t just learning Indian law, I was learning the entire Indian legal system as my Marico lawyer colleagues took me to the Bombay High Court, set me up with the senior advocate in Delhi (many thank yous also to Mr. Pratab – I hope to meet again someday) to set in on a session of the Indian Supreme Court, and all took time from their busy days to entertain my queries about Indian law and India. On my last day of work, knowing my fondness for that fat god with the elephant head who has a wife and rides a rat, my colleagues gave me a golden Ganesh, which now looks out on my room in Pittsburgh from the windowsill, hopefully removing obstacles for me, as Ganesh is known to do. Even though these same colleagues told me I say thank you too much, I am truly grateful, and thank you.
