Grate loss to the community! Really a shocking news! While I was pursuing my studies in Wilson college Mumbai, I had the opportunity to talk to Mr. Suresh Ahuja and Mrs. Suvarna Ahuja to invite her to the program organized by our college for the blind students. We had privilege to invite her as chief guest in one our program. When I conveyed this message on behalf of my college over the phone, she was very gentle and simple in accepting the invitation and I had very long conversation over the phone first time, though this was first time I was speaking to her. Telephonic conversation gave me the feeling as I knew her since long. Really a sad news! May departed soul rest in peace! My deepest condolence to her!
