Our Dad Lt Col N Chandrasekharan was a man of few words and we rarely heard much about his struggles to pursue Engineering at Annamalai University in the early 40s from him, but we have consistently realized the importance he gave to education.
As he was determined, took up a job after his HSC (plus 2), presumably in postal /
Armed services for a short period, and earned sufficiently to support his
education. He also gave tuitions to his classmates to earn for the fees, as
pursuing Mechanical Engineering meant not only Tuition fees, but also books,
mess and hostel Fees
We are grateful to the almighty that today, we his children are in a position to institute
the Lt Col N Chandrasekharan Memorial Scholarship each year to a meritorious student
pursuing the final year in Mechanical
Engineering from REC in the memory of
our dad from Nov 2020 onwards to commemorate his death Anniversary .
