Super cook - a sublime description no doubt but not an exaggeration when one considers the magnitude of his service. Working single-handedly, he cooks for nearly 100
persons everyday and serves about 400-500 cups of tea and coffee to the doctors, visitors, the
Lifeline Express staff et al ! Having worked on the Lifeline Express since 1994, his ebullience and eagerness to feed his guests well, does not seem to have dissipated in these past seven years. Starting his day at
5 a.m. his is the longest day, when he winds up at nearly midnight, after serving all. “Service to others before oneself”, is his motto
which takes him through his hectic day.
Married to Nirmaladevi, he has three sons, Santosh, Sandeep and Sanjay, back home in
Muzaffarpur District of Bihar. He looks forward to his annual holiday which is thoughtfully sanctioned to him
without question by the Colonel so that he can pursue his hobby - relaxing !
