A sincere campaigner
Recently, I was reading an article on agriculture written by eminent media personality Mr. Shaikh Siraj in a national daily while my four and a half years old toddler was playing beside me. A photograph of Mr Siraj was attached in the inset of the article. When I asked my son to name the man, he instantly recognized him. Mr. Siraj has emerged as an icon of Agricultural Information after decades of persistent service for creating awareness in the agriculture arena. This story asserts that if some one dedicatedly and devotedly serves the nation for a good cause he can reach so deep in people's minds, even in the minds of kids.
I take this opportunity to salute this man's unrelenting effort to create a difference and lead a silent revolution in the neglected agricultural sector.
