CHENNAI: It might be just a coincidence. But a fertilizer dealer at Tambaram here made a farmer's day in a big way!
A 70-year-old farmer from Sriperumbudur who came to Chennai to attend his granddaughter's engagement lost a bag containing Rs 1.80 lakh in cash on Monday morning. However, he got the bag and the money back in a few hours thanks to an honest fertilizer dealer in Tambaram.
Police said the farmer, identified as Santhanam, lost his bag and money while he was going to a marriage hall in Tambaram where his granddaughter's engagement was taking place.
To his pleasant surprise, Santhanam received a call from a fertilizer and pesticides dealer, Ram Babu, who told him that he had found a bag containing money and asked him to meet him at the Tambaram police station to collect it.
Babu found the bag lying on the road when he reached the bus stop to see his grandchildren off to school. He opened the bag and found cash in it. There was an invitation card in the bag where Santhanam's celephone number was written. He made a call to the number and contacted Santhanam.
Babu handed over the bag and money to Santhanam in the presence of Tambaram police inspector.
