Prof O N Labru's erstwhile home at Balgarden

A
few months before his death, I called on my Guru, Professor O N Labroo at his
Delhi residence on 14^th June, 2012. My reference to Kashmir
irritated him and he said "Hell with that Kashmir." I said: “Papa Ji,
until 1967, you lived in your ancestral house at Zaindar Mohalla, then from
1967 to 1990 for 23 years you lived in your house at Balgarden. Now since 1990
you live in your Kashmir apartment in New Delhi. Kindly tell me which of the
three places you visit in your naps. Stream of tears slid down his cheeks and
in sobs he said that in his naps he invariably reaches Zaindar Mohalla, his
ancestral house. I changed the topic and begged for an apology.
