My Dad (Mr. V.P Singh) got retired from Kendriya Bhandar ( A Co-operative dept. estd. by Govt. Of India in 1960's), on dated 31st Of August.

I took an off from work to accompany him on his last visit to the office.

we reached there at about 2 PM, everybody was there, all the old time frnds,his boss,and relatives as well. I was wondering my Dad will really feel very disturbed, but he was indeed feeling good about all this....he only talked with me once during whole day and said "watch this all with your whole concentration, we should feel good when we are getting love from people no matter at what cost....if it's my Retirement that could bring my loved ones at one place, i should go throught it gracefully. Some day you are going to need me, and i was preparing for it, now it's the time that your businesses need me, and i am available to you all".

I am going to count his achievements with us and his dept.

1. He married a good Lady "My MOM"

2. He took care of his DAD very well, though we couldn't share much time together "He died in 1985".

3. He was the only employee ever to join KB directly as Incharge of the Store.

4. He saved KB from getting dissolved, talked with the then President of India Mr. Gyani Jail singh, and convinced him that the dept. would not only take care of its own, but will also give the share from profit as well.
5. He was the first union leader, who pushed the KB officials to arrange the clothes for Junior officers 'They still get one suit length every year'.

6. He initiated a new section "stationary and computers" and made the business of 100 Cr. in one year, which was alone equal to the total income of KB, got appreciated by Govt. Of India for his management capabilities.

7. He's the one for whom people at KB think that "you can send him anywhere, he manges so well that even a dull store with the sale of Rs. 15 thousand Per month can jump to 60 th. Per day".

I Love you DAD, and I promise i'll always obey and take good care of you and my mom.

Thanks for everything
