A one of a kind birthday party was planned by the members of the Alwarpet based Gandhi Peace Foundation, recently. It was conservancy worker Kumar’s birthday.
He is at his work site near St. John’s School, Mandaveli at the crack of dawn. And he has been doing this for more than 20 years.
Kumar was speechless when they wished him. He narrated his experiences, how he travels all the way from Kannagi Nagar for his work and how he spends almost a third of his salary on travel.
In the audience were student volunteers of the NSS unit of Stella Maris College. For them it was a lesson learnt, they vowed to work hard and to also honour the helpers at home and at their college.
