Dining hall conversation

Two or three days ago, I met Satheesh, a young gentleman of about 40 by age in our dining hall. We had a formal introduction and a brief conversation. I was glad to see exemplary qualities of simplicity and cordiality in him. 

Nowadays I don't remember names of people whom I meet for the first time. It is probably an indication of early dementia. However, I remember this gentleman's name, as my niece's (my sister's daughter) husband's name is also Satheesh.

I think that our country needs young people such as Satheesh in key decision making positions in all areas of Public Public Administration. 

With a very straightforward and honest leader like Shree Narendra Modi, such a team can bring back the glory of our ancient country.
