RE:A Tribute to Baba Amte
by R Balasubramanian on Feb 09, 2008 12:05 PM

You are right sir. He is the person to be honoured with Bharat Ratna. Though I have heard about this great man and his services I regretr he has not been brought to the limelight like other sundries either by the print or electronic media which is a tragedy to a nation like us. Any way, without any expectations of return or fame, he has tiredlessly worked for the eradication of Hansen's disease which was alarming in our country.

My his soul rest in pease and let either his birth day or departed day be remembered by the nation every year, by an event, without fail. This is the befitting respect we pay to the departed soul for his untired service rendered to humanity, though we did not recognise him during his living.

Balasubramanian, Bangalore
