A Godsend benefactor for Rahul!

I had just sent in an update to all the supporters of Koshish Aur Pukkar (Cradle of Care) and got a call from Mr. Karthik Kuppusamy. He had been donating earlier in Koshish Aur Pukkar "Children Education Fund". He wrote,"Dear Uncle, I am happy to foot his college fees of Rs. 1 Lakh/year. Rgds, Karthik". 

This was an unexpected fantastic news. When I paid the initial Rs. 10,000/- registration fees to confirm Rahul's seat, I was constantly worried about the reactions to our forthcoming application for a bank loan for Rahul. This is because he cannot produce any collateral documents as he is staying in a jhuggi. 

This has been a great relief. It's very kind of Karthik to promise such a help. He has totally assured Rahul's future. 

Later on, I had requested Karthik to meet Rahul at my residence. I told Rahul, "Your finance has not come from a bank, but from God through the hands of Mr. Karthik Kuppusamy. You have to also pay back this loan, once you get established in life,  by donating large amounts monthly to Koshish Aur Pukkar fund which will help other underprivileged children like you".  Rahul did promise the same in our presence.

In Production Science & Technology.  Finally, I would like to show my respect to all my seniors in my professional life in TELCO, Usha Martin, G.T.B. Colombo Corporation, McNally Bharat Engineering Co. Ltd., JCBL Ltd. etc.  Thinking of my teachers, I specially remember Bhattacharya Sir who taught us Mathematics. He used to give us typical maths questions which made us fully prepared for tricky maths questions during the test of I.I.T. entrance examination. I also remember Mitra Sir for Phys...
