Kalyan: An act of sheer honesty was recognized when an auto rickshaw driver returned Rs 1.50 lakh to a passenger from Dombivli this Sunday.
Krishna Gosavi, who was carrying the amount to pay as token money for his new flat, took an auto from Sagarli area to Davdi-area based builder's office in Dombivli.
While getting in the auto, Gosavi kept the bag full of money beside him on the seat. It totally slipped his mind to take the bag full of money with him while getting down, only to be discovered by the auto driver later on.
When driver Prabhakar More reached home, he found the bag on the back seat while cleaning the vehicle. He opened the bag to find Rs 1.5 lakh and some documents. He immediately alerted local BJP corporator Mahesh Patil, saying he wanted to return the bag to its real owner.
