In the first box titled, “Vision 1991”, there is a proportionately large P V Narasimha Rao and on his shoulders a smaller, kurta payjama clad Manmohan Singh is standing, holding a flag that says, “Economic Reforms”.

Folks, as far as Times of India and Hindustan Times cartoons in the online edition are concerned, either they are not updated regularly or I am unable to find the latest ones online, which could be because of my poor navigation skills or poor usability of their websites.

This service will be started if there is a popular demand, so write in!
