The City police on Monday felicitated auto driver G R Ramesh and recommended him for the letter of appreciation, for his honest act of promptly returning the articles left behind in his vehicle by a passenger. These included a laptop, a few documents, cash, debit card and smart phone. 

Danis Hussein, a resident of Jayanagar 9th Block and channel manager with a private health care firm, hired Ramesh’s auto to the Satellite Bus Station, as he was to leave for Mysore, on Saturday morning. Hussein, however, alighted at South End Circle when he noticed a teenager thrashing a boy and interceded to stop it.

This escaped Ramesh’s attention, who realised that Hussein was not in his auto only after reaching the bus stand.  

In the meantime, Hussein was busy trying to trace the auto and was planning to lodge a police complaint. Ramesh, after waiting for an hour and a half for Hussein at the Satellite Bus Station, returned to the auto stand. On hearing Hussein’s story from fellow automen, Ramesh chose to personally visit Hussein at his house to hand over the items.
 Hussein then took him to the police station and narrated the incident to the cops, who commended Ramesh’s honesty. 

Tumkur resident

The auto driver, a father of two daughters, and a resident of 2nd main, Upparalli, Tumkur, commutes to Bangalore every day and plies the auto for a living. One of his daughters recently earned her Bachelors of Computer Applications and the other is a second year BCom student.
