In Loving Memory of my Father in Law — Late Shri Mukesh Mehrotra
In Loving Memory · A Servant’s Legacy
Late Shri Mukesh Mehrotraश्री मुकेश मेहरोत्रा
My beloved father-in-law — my Father in Law. A father, a public servant, a man of unwavering values. Elected Chairman of Kashipur Nagar Palika Parishad in 2003, and in October 2005 conferred the rank of Minister of State by Hon’ble Chief Minister Pandit Narayan Datt Tiwari ji as Vice Chairman, Uttaranchal State Small Industries Development Advisory Committee. He gave his life to public service, and through my wife Khushboo, gave our family its values. These moments capture who he was — quietly, faithfully, with grace.

my Father in Law, the day I joined this family, you made me feel like a son, not a son-in-law. Your dignity, your service, your love for every person who came to your door — these have shaped how I lead, how I build, how I show up for my family. You are deeply missed, and your legacy lives on through Khushboo, through us, and through everyone whose lives you quietly touched.— With deepest love and gratitude, Kunwer Sachdev
