The professor was highly admired by his students & the institution and he developed an attachment to the institution he teaches, and wants his life dedicated to that institution. What is wrong in that? His wish is being fulfilled and thankfully our government is backing that. If someone likes you is heading the External Affairs, you wouldnt even give parents a chance to see their beloved son's mortal remains.
Please be sensible in posting such messages especially when someone is in grief. Thanks.
