ReplyDeleteGreat man. So selfless! I cannot forget you sir. Salute
ReplyDeleteMy humble pranaams to the great soul!Suruji was an easily accessible and down-to-earth person, a typical swayamsevak, having rendered almost 70 years of selfless service to mankind! Even though he was confined to the wheel-chair in the last few years,he used to attend all the public meetings of the Sangh and was a source of inspiration to many people, particularly young swayamsevaks. Those who have known him will miss him!
