Dear Prashanth Mitran,
I am the youngest daughter of PM Kunhiraman Nambiar. My son one fine day decided to search the net for his grandpa and came across this valuable blog of yours. Thank you very much. My heart swelled with pride reading about him and his honesty in the world of murky politics. I know how my father held his head high and walked, even when he was 90 years plus, may be because he had nothing to be ashamed of, even after being in politics for more than 5 decades. How I wish we have even one odd politician of his caliber now in our entire country where politics is now synonymous with bribery and corruption and maximum wealth accumulation in shortest period of time!!!

പ്രിയപ്പെട്ട സുധ നമ്പ്യാർ,
ദയവായി ഇതു കാണുക.
(മലയാളം വിക്കിപീഡിയയിൽ അദ്ദേഹത്തിനെക്കുറിച്ചുള്ള ലേഖനം). അദ്ദേഹത്തിന്റെ പല ചിത്രങ്ങളും താങ്കളുടെ കൈവശം കാണുമല്ലോ. അത്തരം ചിത്രങ്ങൾ സ്കാൻ ചെയ്ത് താങ്കളുടെ തന്നെ
സമ്മതപ്രകാരം പകർപ്പവകാശം വിടുതൽ ചെയ്തതെന്ന പ്രസ്താവനയോടെ, വിക്കിപീഡിയയിലേക്കു സംഭാവന ചെയ്യാൻ അഭ്യർത്ഥിച്ചുകൊള്ളുന്നു.
അദ്ദേഹത്തിന്റെ സ്മരണ എന്നെന്നേക്കും നിലനിർത്താൻ പറ്റിയ ഏറ്റവും നല്ല ഉപാധിയായിരിക്കും ഇതു് എന്നു പ്രത്യേകം ഓർമ്മിപ്പിക്കേണ്ടതില്ലല്ലോ.
അപ്ലോഡ് ചെയ്യേണ്ട ഇടം: (ആദ്യം ഒരു ലോഗ് ഇൻ ഉപയോക്തൃനാമം സൃഷ്ടിക്കണം) ഇവിടെ
നന്ദി!
