X studied at Maharaja’s college, Mysore majoring in Politics, Economics and Philosophy. After graduation, he arrived at Delhi to find a job. The Hindustan Times told him he was too young and that he should start with provincial papers. The Free Press Journal in Bombay gave him a break. On his first day at the job, he was seated next to Y who was furiously sketching a bird in a cage. After introduction, X thought “Is Y an Indian name?”
X didn’t last long at the Free Press Journal. One day, the proprietor banned him from making fun of the communists. He left, caught a train and walked into the Times of India Office. The rest, as they say, is history.
Identify X, Y.
