Dear Editor,
Mr. Vishnu Bisram’s reply in his letter captioned “I did not intend to cast aspersions on Dr Jagan” (08.03.07) to Janet Jagan’s accusation against him of gossip was downright pathetic. It goes to show the type of scholar Mr Bisram is. He is easily scared by the outburst of Mrs Jagan. Mr Bisram’s response to Mrs Jagan is replete with profuse apologies over what all Guyanese know to be true about Dr Jagan’s heart attack. Mrs Jagan accused Mr Bisram of gossip when he wrote about corruption under Dr Jagan. Bisram opined that the severity of financial perversity may have triggered Dr Jagan’s heart attack. Mr Bisram is saying this in 2008. We who live in Guyana knew about this at the time of Dr Jagan’s death.
