When a person retires general human tendency is to claim all the money that needs to be settled by the organisation and come home with a big cheque to eat for the rest of his life. But this person decided to do something back to the organisation where he worked for his entire career with heart full of happiness. When I heard this news of philanthropy, I decided to register it here as this is definitely a motivating factor for me in many ways. "Installation of reverse osmosis water treatment plant for the entire college and hostel in around 1.5 lacs Indian rupees". He has made sure that it has become operational and water is being supplied to the college and hostel students in a weeks time. This does not stop here, he has adopted one student to fund for his/her studies in the same institution. And I am sure there are many more things that he is doing which I do not know. I am happy to say that he is none other than my father-in-law Mr R. Sridharan. A happily retired person from a techincal institution in Trichy.
He is here with us in UK now to spend his intital days of retirement.
ps: mama (as I call him), this post is not to propogate your philantropic activities, but just for our memories.
