Ramu to IAS Ramesh: The Story of a Disabled Bangle Seller Who is Now an IAS officer

very interesting & inspired story of this person . I meet this person, honestly I must  share with all 

I  did not recognised him as IAS Officer  at all .

when he approached to us he was so humble & respective which generally not seen in officer of his rank. The overall interaction of with this person is so good initially we are  not in state mind to accept his  behaviour as government high rank officer   

His story 

   

was so inspiring i couldn't  resist to write on blog here are some glimpses of his story  

He knew education was the only way out of the poverty his mother and family were facing, so he worked as hard as he could.

He saw his mother and other widows being manipulated by an officer who collected money from them and made false promises to get them their pensions.

Ramu was selected for the IAS in the year 2012. And, as per his promise, he came back to his village on May 12, 2012, after finishing a long journey from being Ramu to becoming Ramesh Gorakh Gholap, IAS.

Ramesh Gholap is now posted in Jharkhand as Joint Secretary in the Energy Department.

Ramesh Gholap has given more than 300 informational and motivational talks to youngsters aspiring to take the MPSC or UPSC exams. He is also fulfilling his dream of helping the poor and distressed through his work.

Whenever I cancel the licence of a PDS shop owner who has been black marketing kerosene, I remember my days when I had to turn off the lantern for lack of kerosene. Whenever I help a widow, I remember my mother begging for a house or for her pension. Whenever I inspect a government hospital, I remember my father’s words when he had left drinking and just wanted better treatment. He would ask me to become a big man and take him to a private hospital. Whenever I help a poor child, I remember myself, I remember Ramu,” says Ramesh Gholap, IAS.
