நான் வேலூரில் உள்ள ஊரீசு கல்லூரியில் படித்தவன்.

"நீங்கள் உட்கார்ந்து கொண்டிருக்கிறீர்களே, இந்த மேசையின் மீதும் வகுப்பறையிலும், முன்பு ஒருநாள் யார் உட்கார்ந்திருந்தார் என்று உங்களுக்குத் தெரியுமா? முன்னாள் குடியரசுத் தலைவர் டாக்டர் இராதாகிருஷ்ணன் உட்கார்ந்து படித்த இடம் இது"
இப்படியெல்லாம் சொல்லிச் சிலாகித்துக் கொள்வார்கள் எங்கள் பேராசிரியர்கள். ஆனால், ஒருவர்கூட இந்தக் கல்லூரியில்தான் #எம்_சி_இராஜா அவர்கள் பேராசிரியராகப் பணியாற்றினார் என்று சொல்லவே இல்லை.

அவர்கள் #எம்சி_இராஜா குறித்து எதையெல்லாம் சொல்லாமல் விட்டார்கள் தெரியுமா? Image

A civilian who had done the job for army like a valiant warrior. He proved his love for @adgpi Ranchordas Pagi, also known as Ranchordas Rabari, worked as a scout on behalf of the Indian Army.
He was recruited by the Indian Army. (1/n)
This Unsung Rabari Herder From Kutch Played a Key Role in Two Indo-Pak Wars. The Pakistani army captured many villages in the Kutch area just before the Indo-Pakistani War of 1965.Pagi went into the captured areas to gather information from both villagers & his own relatives. 2/n
This greatly assisted the Indian army. In one of his most remarkable achievements, Ranchod Pagi traced the location of 1200 Pak soldiers hiding in the wilderness in utter darkness. He also helped the @adgpi capture several key posts during the 1965 & 1971 wars with Pakistan. 3/n

Acts of kindness, exotic animals and community spirit – a Thread.

This week a healthy Hornbeam tree was cut down in a deliberate act of vandalism in a Southampton cemetery. We were touched by the level of support on social media and have passed on intel to the police (1/12)
The story doesn’t end there however. After seeing our post, @MarwellWildlife got in touch about the tree… It turns out Hornbeam is a favourite food of their Okapi. They made the generous offer to pick up the felled tree and put it to good use in feeding their animals. (2/12)
The Okapi will share the tree with their taller friends the Giraffes. A huge thanks to @MarwellWildlife for this act of kindness. (3/12)

Santosh Solanki, a ward assistant at the Naidu Infectious Diseases Hospital, Pune has been serving patients amidst the Covid pandemic. During the swine-flu outbreak as well, he was one of the many faceless staffers who worked from morning till late at night.
While doctors and nurses are often recognised for their work, seldom are ward assistants or orderlies given any credit. Yet, staffers like Solanki continue to serve the patients selflessly. Even Solanki’s mother was a cleaning staff at the hospital, so was his grandmother.
Solanki says, “There are times when we are treated badly by patients or their family members, but I have no regrets. Rich or poor, we are all humans. The disease doesn’t discriminate. We know that they are under tremendous stress. So, we always respond to all patients politely.”
