Manjunath Rao

Manjunath Rao-- One of the great person, I have met. He was President of D & B Africa. He is a happy go lucky person, a perfect Marketing and Sales professional. I met him in Morocco for my first assignment. He was the one who gave the confidence in me as I had just joined the organisation and was with team to visit for a presales along with the CEO.

Two years back, when I was travelling to Libya, unfortunately, I got struck in Egypt Airport for nearly 36 hours without food, water, sanitary facility. I coudn't communicate properly to any one for language barrier. Nor there was any help from any other quarters. And he was the man who came to my rescue. He was very fatherly.

I am now in my vaccation and was checking my emails occassionaly. One message got me shocking-- conveying condolence. Mr. Manjunath has reached the lotus feet of almighty on 29th December, 2009.

The best I could do to convey my condolences is to post this blog. I am very sad.

May his soul rest in peace.

Let God give the courage to his family to accept his demise.
