BMC urges WR to Delay the reconstruction of Borivali Road Over Bridge

Bharat ka Ratna

Meet the man with 27,500 daughters. They don’t call him CEO. They call him Appa.

KP Ramaswamy, owner of KPR Mills in Coimbatore, runs a textile empire. But he measures success not in profits — but in graduation certificates.

It began with one request from a young mill worker:
"Appa, I want to study."

That one sentence changed everything.

So he built classrooms inside his mill.
📚 4-hour classes after 8-hour shifts
👩‍🏫 Full-time teachers, yoga, even a principal
🎓 All fully funded. No conditions.

Today:
✅ 24,500+ women are graduates.
✅ Some are now police officers, teachers, nurses.
✅ 20 gold medals from Tamil Nadu Open University this year alone.

You’d think he’d worry about them leaving.
But Appa says: "They are here because of poverty, not by choice. My job is to give them a future, not a cage."

They leave. They grow. And send more girls to the mill.

This isn’t CSR. This is real nation-building.
And maybe... the most beautiful HR policy ever written.
