Sharing this thoughtful article which actually talks about a workable solution.
Thank you.
Good Evening,
Wishing all of you a very happy teachers day.
In our community, teachers and students are peers, we all mutually learn from each other, and I’ve personally learnt so much from all of you.
Thank you so much for being there through thick and thin, for being so kind, and so so forgiving.
Thank you so much for such thoughtful messages. I will personally respond to all.
Promise to keep fighting the good fight, and as requested by so many of you, something very special coming up for all of you :)
Thank you,
Atish

Ravindran Sir passed away.
He gave up decades of life to build one of the greatest institutions of our time, was the absolute gold standard of Polity, and above all, was one of the finest leaders and teachers ever.
He was my teacher, taught me how to teach; whatever little I am able to do today, is because of him.
There will never be anyone like him, and it’s never going to be the same anymore.
Our fraternity lost its godfather.
