Lesser Known Good Lawyers : A Lawyer who sleeps in Gaushala

All lawyers are not bad. There are also good lawyers about whom people know very little. One such lawyer is Prakash Pathak. He daily sleeps at night in Gaushala. He feeds cows. Washes cows and he serves cows.

He is a very busy and prominent advocate in Gujarat High Court at Ahmedabad. He is so busy that he can hardly talk with you for more than a couple of minutes. He is always surrounded by his clients and juniors. Several Junior advocates are working under him and his office is working till 10.00PM.

He maintains his own Gaushala. At 10.30pm he goes in Gaushala. Serves cows and also sleeps there. At 4.30AM he again serves cows. People from nearby area come for milk. During this period, he looks like an ordinary and simple villager. The researches are going on. Several products and medicines are made from cow products. His staff assists him in looking after cows.

At 8.30AM he goes to his office and he again becomes a very busy lawyer. No one who will see him arguing in Court, will ever imagine that this lawyer is also a Gaupalak.

I have told you this story, so that you do not think that all lawyers are bad. Some of them are very good human beings. It is our fault that we know less about them.
