Some pages from History

My father had one brother elder to him, Purshotam Lal and two sisters, Geeta and Brahami. Both sisters were married into one family who owned nearly the whole village and were big Landlords. Bauji's brother was a Senior V.T teacher in those days. Bauji was born on 20th April,1904. He joined the P.E.S on 16th Sept, 1929 at Kullu as an Assistant District Inspector of Schools. I recently got access to his service book. Incidentally he retired in 1959, the year I was commissioned into the Navy. All entries of his service book have been made by him and interestingly the last entry reads "Finished this service with great glory and respect " That is the sum total, the way he served

A sheet of paper in the book he has left behind is a letter written by one of his bosses when he was only 25-26 years old. praising his managerial skills. His grand children, Doctors, M.B.A's, I.T Professionals, C.A's think they are whiz-kids. It will be good reading for them...
