Shri Subhash Chandra Banerjee – Retired college professor form Kolkata

Professor

This is a retired college professor form Kolkata, Shri Subhash Chandra Banerjee. He is 82. He lives alone in a small flat in Dumdum area of Kolkata. Most of his modest pension is spent on medicines.
Yesterday he stood outside his building and flagged a police party doing the lock down rounds.
Seeing his age and frail condition, the cops thought he was in distress and rushed to him.
Instead he invited them into his home. As they sat wondering what the octogenarian is up to, he wrote out a cheque for Rupees 10,000/- for the State Covid 19 Relief Fund and handed it over to them.
He apologised to the cops for asking them to do this out of turn task, as he is not sure how to go about on line transactions. This donation from the heart is priceless. There are scores of so-called ordinary citizens of our country who are displaying extra-ordinary character and citizenship. And giving us a glimpse of their huge hearts. Goosebumps moment.
