I said I slowed down. "Ok. I wont fine you. But I will hit you on your palm by my wand." I said OK. He went on hitting me for a while without stopping. I being unable to bear the pain said, "stop $TOP!." He smiled and asked me, "should I slow down. Or stop"?
"Oh no please STOP." I pleaded. This is for speeding drivers.
I my self proudly say that I am the one of the student studied and learned how to get it done, and I respect them.
A great salute

I did not study under him but, I have seen him after his retirement, tremendously contributing to Thonse Nidambally Primary School.
He was highly energetic and a dynamic personality. He also possessed technical knowledge as he used repair clocks etc.
Hat off to him.
May God keep them happy wherever they are.
Thanks for sharing this rare photo.
Golden era has passed away and the school is struggling to survive Now. Only memories remain. Nostalgic snap took us back to the past.
Even today I remember them for the quality of teaching and affection they were giving to us.
