A Great Gandhian dies after 21 day fast.........My deepest condolences

Dr. Dwarkadas Joshi a 94 yr old Gandhian eye surgeon was on Ganga Jal ever since he fractured his leg on August 15th. He wanted to leave this world jus like Vinobha Bhave died in 1982. His funeral was attended by scores of people whose lives he had touched in some way or the other and the Gujarat government gave him a guard of honour

He had left Mumbai in 1940's to settle in Vadnagar. His son Dr. Mihir Joshi is now a practising ophthalmologist in Vadnagar and now the 3rd generation is into Ophthalmology. His grandson Vithan is a Senior working Optometrist in  Aditya Jyot.

My deepest condolences to the Joshi family.
