A new age Bala Gangadhara Tilak at Hyderabad. He spends his own pension money filling potholes across the streets, that too doing it personally. Hats off to him, and shame on the local administration.

This Frenchman fixes potholed Mysore roads
MYSORE: It's not the government's job alone to fix bad roads, even individuals have a responsibility, says Francis Bobo. The 61-year-old Frenchman would rightly know for he has been quietly repairing any pothole or bad road he comes across in Mysore in whatever way he can.
Francis even keeps a repair kit, including a spade and a few gunny bags permanently in his four-wheeler. Whenever he finds debris in his farmland or anywhere else, he fills it up on roads which are in bad shape. It's a temporary fix to the problem but at least covers a gaping hole.

Mr.Kalayanasundaram worked as a Librarian for 30 years.
Every month in his 30 year experience(service), he donated his entire salary to help the needy. He worked as a server in a hotel to meet his needs. He donated even his pension amount of about TEN(10) Lakh rupees to the needy.
He is the first person in the world to spend the entire earnings for a social cause. In recognition to his service, (UNO)United Nations Organisation adjudged him as one of the Outstanding People of the 20th Century.. An American organisation honored him with the ‘Man of the Millennium’ award. He received a sum of Rs 30 cores as part of this award which he distributed entirely for the needy as usual.
Moved by his passion to help others, Super Star Rajinikanth adopted him as his father. He still stays as a bachelor and dedicated his entire life for serving the society.
We all Indians should be PROUD. UNO has honored him but we Indians don't even know that such a personality exist amongst us.
At least have the courtesy to pass this on and on till the whole world comes to know about this Great Good Samaritan.
Man of the Millennium.....
Hat's off Kalayanasundaram.. We Indians are extremely proud of you and proudly say "EVEN THIS , HAPPENS ONLY IN INDIA"
