25. Any regret :
I always feel bad when someone you have helped
progress in his life becomes jealous and lets you down.
26. Ideal person :
A person who always introspects for his weakness and
always tries to notice the virtues in others is an ideal person.
Whoever thinks that in the happiness of others, my happiness
resides is an ideal person.
27. Memorable incident of a student :
A son whose father used to pull a lawry, got 89% but he
had no money for higher education. He wrote me a letter and
expressed his desire to study in SEMCOM. I waved his fees for
all three years. He studied in SEMCOM and earns a package of
Rs. 18 lac today.
28. Vehicle and Adventures :
My father gave me a Lamreta Scooter in 1963. At two
different instances, I travelled on scooter from Rajkot to
Anand. In 1966, I bought a Ferguson Tractor in Rs. 16
thousand. Then I got the learning license. I left Rajkot at 8.30
in the evening after my dinner. I drove through-out the night.
I reached Anand at 9.30 in the morning travelling via
Viramgam and Sarkhej. At that time, roads were not up to the
mark. Moreover it was monsoon. It was raining cats and dogs.
I drove the vehicle constantly for 13 hours in such a
cruel weather and reached home. At that time it was an
adventure.
