The very next day, early in the morning I saw Lakshmana Rao in our college, I was shocked to see him talking to our Tamil Teacher Malliga Ma'am, which made me realise the Comrade who was the Tamil Teacher in Govt college he was talking about yesterday with the Dr. Sivapadam was none other than our own Tamil Ma'am. Since the entire college was empty, our Tamil Teacher and Lakshmana Rao were talking to each other in the empty staff room. As Lakshmana Rao started telling my Tamil Teacher his marrying my mom and she was a widow, my Tamil Teacher being a Communist who was basically a strong advocate of intercaste marriage, feminism, equality and widow remarriage, really liked the idea of Lakshman Rao marrying my mom. When Lakshmana Rao asked her for her help to teach him Tamil, our Tamil Teacher readily agreed and started coming to college early in the morning before the college would start to learn Tamil from our Tamil Teacher. As our Tamil Teacher and Lakshmana Rao started meeting regularly, their friendship started getting better and Lakshmana Rao started attending Communist Meetings along with our Tamil Teacher. It was through Lakshmana Rao, the Communist Party our Tamil Teacher was part of started getting in touch with the Communist Leaders from the North. During the Farmers protests, Lakshmana Rao through his contacts started bringing the Communist Party Leaders from the North and introducing them to the Communist Party which our Tamil Teacher was part of.
