Lakshya Kee Ore

Writing and publishing of this book took 20 months for me. Amongst the life's experiences chronicled by me in this book, I included the story of Alka Nangia also. Alka, my niece, after a scooter accident at the age of 21, spent the next 27 years on bed, hardly able to move her limbs. This, however, did not reduce her mental agility and in this physical state, she went on to achieve entry into 'Limca Book of records' for her capacity to do mental calculations and correctly tell the days of the week for any date given to her upto 100 years in the past or future within an average time of 12 secs.
As the book was released on 4th July this year, I immediately sent a copy of it for her to see it at Gurgaon. It reached there on 8th July afternoon. Alka had left this world the same morning.
