Power of being a Teacher

We take the oppotunity to bow to the stock exchange which is a strict teacher and it teaches us numerous aspects of life.

We here provide a real incidence which shows the power of being a teacher.

The Year 1994 :
The President of India,  Shri Shankar Dayal Sharma visited Muscat on an official trip.

When the Air India flight landed at Muscat, 3 rather unusual incidents took  place:

1. The Sultan of Oman never goes to the airport to receive dignitaries of any country - Never. But he made an exception this time and went to the airport to receive the President of India!

2. When the flight landed, the Sultan of Oman climbed up the airstairs and received the President from his seat inside the aircraft!

3. After alighting the flight there was a car with the chauffeur standing.  But the Sultan signalled the driver to move and he himself drove the car with President!

Later when the reporters questioned the Sultan why he broke so many protocols, the Sultan replied, "I did not go to the airport to receive Mr Sharma because he was India's President. I studied in India and learnt so  many things, when I was studying in Pune, Mr Sharma was my Professor -  that is why I did this!"

That is the power of being a teacher.
