Diwali is the perfect day to learn about people who Rise. A friend sent me this saying he was in tears watching it. Find the whole clip on YouTube & I challenge you to remain dry-eyed.

Anand Mahindra everyone's favourite netizen
Time and again Chairman of the Mahindra Group, Anand Mahindra takes to Twitter and shares videos which makes his followers laugh or move to tears. On October 23, Mahindra had tweeted a heartwarming video of an individual from Mysore who quit his corporate job to take his mother on India tour on a scooter. The soul-stirring video that the business tycoon shared is about Dakshinmurthy Krishna Kumar from Mysore who left his banking job and travelled with his 70-year-old mother, who never stepped out of her house, on a scooter. All he wished was to show her around the country. Dakshinmurthy has so far travelled a total of 48,100 kilometres on a scooter. He also offered to gift the man a Mahindra KUV100 NXT for his journey ahead.
A beautiful story. About the love for a mother but also about the love for a country... Thank you for sharing this Manoj. If you can connect him to me, I’d like to personally gift him a Mahindra KUV 100 NXT so he can drive his mother in a car on their next journey https://t.co/Pyud2iMUGY
