The gap between footboard of local and platform no.12 at Dadar (CR) is very wide. Sr citizen, ladies and children find it difficult to alight or board local at Dadar platform no.12 Please rectify before any untoward incident. @Central_Railway @drmmumbaicr

Bharat ka Ratna
Meet the man with 27,500 daughters. They don’t call him CEO. They call him Appa.
KP Ramaswamy, owner of KPR Mills in Coimbatore, runs a textile empire. But he measures success not in profits — but in graduation certificates.
It began with one request from a young mill worker:
"Appa, I want to study."
That one sentence changed everything.
So he built classrooms inside his mill.
📚 4-hour classes after 8-hour shifts
👩🏫 Full-time teachers, yoga, even a principal
🎓 All fully funded. No conditions.
Today:
✅ 24,500+ women are graduates.
✅ Some are now police officers, teachers, nurses.
✅ 20 gold medals from Tamil Nadu Open University this year alone.
You’d think he’d worry about them leaving.
But Appa says: "They are here because of poverty, not by choice. My job is to give them a future, not a cage."
They leave. They grow. And send more girls to the mill.
This isn’t CSR. This is real nation-building.
And maybe... the most beautiful HR policy ever written.
One more terminus at Jogeshwari by next year. Soft upgrade for 25 stations on @Central_Railway and @WesternRly @manthankmehta
