Raj, My Dad expired when I was 5 years old. We had a business which a few of Dad's partners cheated as my mother did not know what was happening. Never mind, though we went thru a difficult time, I was brought up by my mother who instilled virtues and always expected me to do what was right. She said - Dad before he died - told my Mum only this - to ensure that his children learnt the right values. The simple words have remained a guide for me thru life. Even today, if I visit my town, we get respect - because of who my father was.
It is only unfortunate, that I did not get to know this great man, who so many look upto.
