I can't forget this cartoon:

A famished, poorly clad villager, his wife, his two young children fighting with each other and his dog yawning and in the background a field without any crop. A Govt. Babu very politely tells a visiting Minister with Gandhi cap and a broad smile on his face: "sir, they cooked and ate all the hybrid seeds we gave them free". The common was a witness standing nearby.

Yes, R.K. Laxman was a genius. He had an eye for the funny side of all situations. When I lived in Bombay, everyday the first thing I used to look for after getting up in the morning was TOI and the cartoon "you said it
 
Indeed R.K.Laxman was a genius. He was one of the few world class cartoonists India has produced.
The Times of India has published 25 of his cartoons as Best Cartoons which are available in the following Web-link:

It will refresh our memory about this greatman.

Brahmanyan,
Bangalore.
Yes Sir,
It will refresh our memory not only about this great man but also about his departed, illustrious brother R.K.Narayan.
 
He taught people to enjoy life as it unfolds. He was entertaining us all. And those who entertained him continue to entertain us too.
 
The memorial for R.K.Laxman is being erected in Sir JJ School of Arts, Mumbai which in the 1930's ironically rejected his admission on grounds of not meeting the requirements(?)...
