Chalapathi Rao

Chalapathi Rao was our officer. He was in his thirties when he got transferred to Guntur. He was recently married. Always he used to tell about his experiences in his inlaws house.How his fatherinlaw and motherinlaw were afraid of him , how they would respect him and small small incidents there. H ewas a chain smoker. So he said he would ask his younger brother in law to bring cigarettes from shop now and then whenever he went there. He was a kind hearted man, always smiling. We became friends easily because he had good sense of humour. He was not living with his family because she gone to her parents for delivery.But after wards I learnt that while going to the branch ,he collapsed on the way and passed away. His wife got the job on compassionate grounds. He was very weak and tall. I think chain smoking and general weakness brought his end so early in life. I feel sorry for him and his family.
