My Grandmother : Late Smt.Bhavanikunjamma

Lastly, but definitely not the least, in this website I would like to introduce one more person of my family, my grand mother, Late Smt. Bhavanikunjamma, who had influenced me in many ways. She was the pillar of the whole family. She use to play chess extremely well. I don't remember anyone who played chess with her had ever won.�She was so loving and caring. She died on 20th Dec 1999. We all miss here today. Nobody can fill the vaccum�she has created in our family.

I would like to say that she had influenced my life in many ways. I always thank her for all the support she had given me.
