Visionary

He created in popular mind a desire for motor-sport, organised events, founded organisations to run the activity -- and in the process gave India an exciting, thrilling, adventurous sport. India may not have really risen to the top layers of the international motor-sport pyramid, all right. But that does not diminish the im

ABU MOHAMMED Al-Golani, the militant leader whose stunning insurgency toppled Syria’s President Bashar Assad, has spent years working to remake his public image, renouncing longtime ties to al-Qaida and depicting himself as a champion of pluralism and tolerance.
