Anna" s Biographer says he had to overcome the dangers writing another hagiography. Those who knew Anna from close quarters prefer evading questions says Kannan. Though Anna died 40 years ago political environment is not conducive for them to speak out. For instance the issue of MGR"s resignation from the Legislative Council . Anna was in Jail & it shocked him All senior leaders evade the question. I did not want to defy him, though I wanted to show him as a tall leader with short comings and limitation owing to his political milieu and the kind of followers he had to mobilize Kannan Says. Since senior leaders were evading he had to depend on written material that were polarized . According to him the book would have been richer if they had not evaded the questions.
