Great Grandfather Donation to Indian Army
Great Grandfather was Indeed a Great Patriot Nationalist who offered Whopping 1 Crore R.S donation to Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose in 1945. The Amount was everything that my GGF Mr. ABDUL HABEEB MARFANI of the Resident of Dhoraji, Gujarat, India. The Amount of 1 Crore Was Humungous and Herculean In Those Days When Dhirubhai Ambani Invested Rs. 10,000 and today he has Empire Called Reliance. But, grandpa chose to donate Whopping 1 Crore Rupees. To the Cause of the nation's Liberation. If this Grandpa MARFANI had Chosen to Invest in Biz, Shares, Stocks, Bonds, Land or even Bank FD's then this amount of 1 crore would have flourished into thousands of Crores. But, GREAT GRANDFATHER chosen to invest in Nation Building and His Satisfaction was realized and dream materialized.
Though, he Rendered His MARFANI FAMILY penniless His Argument would have been that "NATION FIRST" The following must be the compelling forces of GREAT GRANDFATHER behind Donating To Netaji All and Sundry Without If or But. I can not Imagine the awesome generosity and Herculean and Enormous Patriotism. Neither me nor Any of my Keen folks or my Colleagues Or Anyone that I Know Has Ever Known Anyone From Any Community Weather Muslims or Non-Muslims, Late or living, Has Made Such an Enormous Contribution to the nation to retrieve its Sovereignty. I do not perceive anyone in the future will have such Magnificient Nationalism to Display. One can find Umpteen Pseudo patriotic who would indulge only in empty rhetorics pertaining to their pointless sacrifices for the nation but Great Grandfather Mr. Honourable Abdul Habeeb Marfani (May God Bless, His Soul) Were a Mediocre Man Without Any kind of Pompous desire to become a Leader for the position in the August Office Of India, Gave Away every Panny cash and Gold ornaments to the party of Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose without asking or even anticipating Even an iota In Return, Neither Power nor Plutocracy, not even a word of thanks b'coz He Believed in nationalism, not Materialism, He Chased After truism and not Altruism. Grandpa, We Salute You For your Ever Unique Sacrifice for our beloved Motherland we call it India with Pride. Grand Dad We all are deeply Proud of You and sovereignty of motherland is indebted to you. We all wish hope and pray the similar Spirit of Sacrifice for our endeared nation.
