Legendary Journalist TJS George Dies at 97
Veteran journalist and author TJS George passed away on Friday at the age of 97. Known for his 'Point of View' columns, George was renowned for his clear perspectives and journalistic wisdom.
George, a chronicler of his times, never shied away from speaking his mind. He praised Kerala Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan's statesmanship, diplomatic sense, and farsightedness, but also wasn't afraid to criticise, once launching a scathing attack on Vijayan's political posturings.
A true-blood journalist, George avoided mobile phones but made exceptions for certain individuals. His Malayalam works, including the magnum opus 'Ghoshayathra', are highly regarded. Despite his reclusive nature in his later years, specific details about those he regularly spoke to or met in Kerala are not publicly available.
TJS George's passing marks the end of an era in Indian journalism. His contributions to the field, his fearless perspective, and his literary works will continue to inspire future generations of journalists.
