Collector Gives Memorable Farewell To Chauffeur By Driving Him On His Last Day

MAHARASHTRA:
For the last 35 years, Digambar Thak had been serving as a driver to district collectors, the top IAS officers in the country. On his last day of service, little did he know that his boss would have planned a special way to thank him for his service. aloka
On Digambar Thak’s last day on the job, his boss G Sreekanth, the Aloka district collector, reversed roles and in a heartwarming gesture, took the driver’s seat to drive his chauffeur to work.
It was a touching moment as the chauffeur, wearing his crisp white uniform, sat at the back seat while his boss took the wheels. What’s even more heartwarming is to see the car especially decorated with flowers for him.
“For close to 35 years, he’s helped the state with his service, ensuring that collectors get to their workplace safely, day after day. I wanted to make this a day to remember for him and also to say thank you for what he’s done”, says Sreekanth.
At first glance, it looks like a car that’s all decked up for a wedding. Then, there’s the orange beacon. It gets even more curious when you see a man in crisp white chauffeur’s uniform climb into the back of the car, the door held for him.
It’s Digambar Thak’s last day at work and his boss G Sreekanth, the collector of Akola in Maharashtra, has
decided to give him a rather unusual and memorable parting gift. He’s driving his chauffeur to work on the last day of his job, ahead of a farewell ceremony in the office.
