[MemoirBlogthon #63] In 1971, my Upanayanam (sacred thread ceremony) was a five-day family festival at the PWD quarters in Vijayawada. My father, with meticulous care, explained the symbolic attireโfrom the 'shikha' to the 'danda'โand prepared me for my spiritual rebirth. The event, marked by the novelty of a public address system and the surprise attendance of my maternal grandfather, cemented a lasting legacy. Though the ceremony ended, the duty did not: my father, knowing

[MemoirBlogthon #62] My return to my childhood school in Vijayawada, founded by Padma Shri awardee Smt. V. Koteswaramma garu, completed a profound circle of gratitude. I came back as a professional (ICSI Hyderabad Chapter Chairman) to conduct a career program, but the true honor was remembering the ethical groundwork laid by my fatherโwhose solution to leveling the school grounds with a road roller years ago proved that professional service is the most enduring legacy of all.

[MemoirBlogthon #61] When the Prime Minister's visit required a secure, high-standard residence, the three-month deadline to renovate an old building fell to my father. He took the high-stakes assignment as an opportunity, transforming the structure into a palace-like VVIP Guest House. This feat of meticulous planning and ethical execution remains a lasting testament to his engineer's ethic and the unwavering integrity he demonstrated under political pressure. MB#61: A Feat

[MemoirBlogthon #60] As the certifying authority for cine theater building fitness in Machilipatnam in 1969, my father was privy to a unique, unspoken perk: free balcony entry and refreshments for his family. He initially refused, but when his staff felt they were losing the courtesy, he engineered a brilliant compromise. His rulesโprior intimation, small groups, and respecting management's comfortโallowed us to enjoy classic films and attend glamorous 100-day celebrations,

[MemoirBlogthon #59] My father's daily hour with the Telugu and English newspapers wasn't just a habit; it was a silent lesson in civic awareness. This ritual inspired my own contributions to the "Letters to the Editor" column, one of which unexpectedly became the focus of my banking interview, proving that readingโand contributingโto the newspaper was the most vital 'certification' of all.

[MemoirBlogthon #58] Every childhood summer, while friends played, my father mandated tedious handwriting practice in a copy writing book, arguing that neatnessโnot personalityโdetermined marks in unseen college exams. This painful discipline proved crucial in my academic and professional life, particularly as an examiner for the ICSI, where handwriting often gauged an examinee's depth of knowledge. Backed now by neuroscience, this legacy lives on: I still prefer handwritten

[MemoirBlogthon #57] AIR assigned me a unique, challenging OB recording: covering Gliding training with NCC cadets at Gannavaram Airport. Never having heard of gliding, I sought help from my father, who, having been an NCC cadet and worked in military , provided a technical briefing on the air wing syllabus. Armed with his knowledge, I secured permission to enter the airport. The true test came when the instructor agreed to let me fly with him in the dual-controlled glider,

[MemoirBlogthon #56] My time at AIR elevated me to a minor celebrity status, especially during the Krishna Pushkaralu festival in 1980. While I was on live duty, groups of listeners, having obtained entry passes, streamed through the announcer's cabin, watching me broadcastโa surreal experience that left many surprised. But the truest validation came earlier: I gave my father and a visiting IIT Professor a rare guided tour of the studios, explaining the complex logistics of t

[MemoirBlogthon #54] In October 1977, as a budding freelance journalist, I visited All India Radio (AIR), Vijayawada. Impressed by my enthusiasm and Jaycees social service credentials, Programme Executive Sri B. Ramanna Panthulu Garu entrusted me with my first official assignment: producing a youth feature for Diwali Day.
