For Milan, taking care of the cattle was something close to heart. While he took pride in toiling in the field and taking care of the livestock, he knitted several dreams of having a plush job and earning good salary to build better future for himself and his family. However, all of these dreams wound up quite too fast as Milan died an untimely death on Wednesday morning.
Milan was a hard working young boy. After having completed his primary and higher primary schooling in Mumbai, Milan came to Mangalore for his Higher Secondary Education. He completed his engineering degree from Sahyadri College of Engineering last year and was on a look out for job.
He had appeared for interview for several companies in Bangalore. Two days ago he should have left to Bangalore but confusion in his passport with regard to his name prevented him. His plan to go to Bangalore after two days will never happen.
Poor family
Milan's father Ramesh Shetty ran a petty shop in Mumbai. Mr Shetty came back to native place after he developed heart problem. Despite acute poverty the parents saw to it that the financial constrains never posed impediments to the dreams of their children. Despite all odds, the family nurtured Milan's dreams of becoming an engineer. His younger sister Nidhi too is studying in a private college in Mangalore. Milan's mother Vasanthi Shetty is the member of Pudu Gram Panchayat.
Coincidence
A startling fact is that four years ago one of the cattle of Ramesh Shetty had got electrocuted at the same spot. On Wednesday the family could not help but recalled the incident because this day it was their son who was electrocuted at the same spot.
While the Shetty family was about to see better days with Milan settling down in life, all of their dreams have been dampened by fate.
