DOESN’T HE HAVE ANY THOUGH FOR THE GOOD OF HIS STUDENTS?

During Baba’s stay in Guruprasad at this time, (May 1965) Nana Kher’s brother Vinoo’s daughter, Veena, failed her B.Sc. (Bachelors of Science) exam by only one point, and  Vinoo informed Bhau about this in a letter. That evening when Bhau went to Baba for nightwatch, Baba asked him, “Any news today?”

Baba would ask this question every day, and that day, in addition to giving him other news, Bhau told him about Veena’s failure to pass the test. In response, Baba complained, “What an injustice! The student fails because of only one point! It is unfair. What sort of university is that, and what a fool the vice-chancellor must be! Doesn’t he have any though for the good of his students? Anyone failing by five marks should be passed!”

Baba continued complaining about this for a long time. He had Nana Kher informed, through Bhau, to tell Vinoo not to worry. A month later, news was received that the girl had passed her B.Sc. – so had all those who had failed by one to five marks.
