In my service spanning over 38 years from 1974 to 2012, wherever I was posted, I always tried to help children of our jawans. This is one thing which gives me immense satisfaction and pleasure.
These children of army men needed guidance as most of their parents were not so well educated, and they also did not have much time.
As the second in command (21C) of my Unit in Jodhpur in 1991-92, I used to hold Sunday classes for our unit children.
There were about 30 to 40 children to start with, but the number kept growing, as children from some other units also used to join in. Starting with public speaking, communication skills, manners and etiquettes, English, GK etc, it used to be an organised affair.
Some children of officers also joined in. It was a true example of unity in diversity, and cultural harmony, as children belonged to all religions and different parts of the country.
