While I respect the departed soul, I wish our leaders showed similar unity and respect for common citizens too. Thousands die daily without any recognition. Just an observation, no disrespect intended.

Om Shanti. The values Daulal ji instilled in his son are evident in Ashwini Vaishnaw's work as Railways Minister. May his legacy continue to inspire future generations of public servants.

The article mentions he was from a small village in Rajasthan - proof that talent and character can come from anywhere in India. We need to recognize and celebrate such grassroots success stories more often.

My father knew Daulal ji from legal circles in Jodhpur. He always spoke about his humility despite his achievements. In today's world where people chase fame, we've lost a truly grounded personality. #RIP
