Remembering him

Tweet

Yesterday August 01 was the birth anniversary of my late father. He was born on this day in 1913. He was a scholar. While still in school, he had joined the revolutionaries and his name figures in number of books written by eminent people. My father had also written several books on war of Independence and his book 'Rakta ke Chhitein' was well received by people. After 1947, he became a Lecturer and thereafter went to Minnesota University in US of A. He retired as Dean of Education in Bihar. I remember him very much as he lived a very simple and honest life. His desire was that he would live with me after his retirement. Unfortunately, both my father and mother died within three months in 1976 when I was at a very far off place in my job. I received the news after three-four days of their demise. Yesterday, I looked at their photographs and lived in the history for number of hours.
