Veera Bhajan rejects Ramlogan’s offer
...refuses to be PR puppet

Young attorney Veera Bhajan has blanked Attorney General Anand Ramlogan’s offer to return to her job at his ministry. Ministry officials yesterday confirmed to Sunday Guardian that following the publication of Bhajan’s resignation, Ramlogan asked her to reconsider, however, Bhajan has refused.
The Hummingbird medallist shot into the spotlight, winning the hearts of many, after she soared to academic excellence despite being born with no arms. A close friend, who Bhajan confided in while at the central authority unit at the ministry, attempted to put pieces of the puzzle together when Sunday Guardian returned her telephone call on Friday.
“To be honest, what happened was long overdue. No matter what is offered to her, Veera would never come back to work at the ministry. I remember that Veera came to me on many occasions with tears in her eyes telling me how she felt. She felt like she was being used as a public relations puppet. Throughout the time she was there she always complained of not being respected for who she was,” her confidant revealed.
Explaining that Bhajan was only interested in excelling in her career despite being disabled, her former colleague revealed: “She got fed up of being at the beck and call of individuals. She repeatedly said that she studied for five years to become an attorney, not to enhance the image of anyone. It was a number of things that led to her decision. She could not deal with the publicity stunts anymore.”
According to her colleague, Bhajan wanted to throw in the towel after it was announced that she had asked Ramlogan to present her to the Bar. “She never got over where that story came from and things just continued going downhill after that. Veera was made to say things and be places that she did not want to be.
“She was even asked to be at the welcoming function for Project Runway winner Anya Ayoung-Chee. Veera did not understand why and blanked that function. “Every time we had functions she always had to be there; she was told what to say, and who to talk to. Even her speeches were written for her. She felt like her life was being controlled.
“We are talking about an educated person not being allowed to speak for herself so she decided she wanted out and called it a day.” Pointing out that circumstances have to be unbearable for an individual to quit a job and stay home, her colleague added: “Nobody gets up and walks out of a job without having somewhere else to go. There must be something that caused it.
“Veera was in the postgraduate programme earning a $6,000 salary. The money did not matter to her but she wanted to be herself and she was not afforded that opportunity. We truly miss working with her.”
