100 fabulous years for Ram Pratap Gondal

Ram Pratap Gondal, the printer, publisher, writer and freedom fighter celebrated his 100th birthday. The founder of Gondals Press and publishing company, the Vidya Mandir (now called The Gondals Press India) defeats age everyday - and continues to devote six days in a week to the printing unit as well as the publishing company.

He is presently the chairman emeritus of Gondals Press. It was under his aegis that the company, in 2005, set-up a new unit at IMT Manesar, Gurgaon, fully equipped with a five-colour Heidelberg press. We salute Mr Gondal and wish the "Banyan Tree of Gondals Press" to continue to inspire the generations ahead.
