The lawyer who sent money to a client when he heard that his house was washed away in flood due to heavy rain.
This actually happened some years ago. I could not believe this at first. But when the client who had received money told me, I had to believe him.
He was dismissed from service without due process. He went to an Ahmedabad lawyer.
Since he was poor and out of job, the Lawyer agreed to fight his case for nominal expanses charges.
He fought. And won. The client got his job. But some seniority and benefits were denied to him.
So he came to me to file an appeal in Supreme Court, and then he told me this story.
He had a house in lower plane of Surat near a river. When heavy rain and flood came, his house was washed away.
His case was still pending and awaiting hearing in High Court.
When Ahmedabad lawyer read in newspaper about flood, he made inquiries about his client and learned that his house was washed away.
The lawyer immediately sent money to client to help his rehabilitation.
The name of lawyer is Prakash H. Pathak.
