DR. ANIL KUMAR AERON AND DR. (MRS) MEENA AERON
MEMORIAL SCHOLARSHIPS

Dr. Anil Kumar Aeron was born in a middle class family in Bikaner, a city of Rajasthan, India on 05.09.1942. They were five brothers and two sisters. He was eldest of all. Two of his brothers died in very young age and at that very young age he decided to become a doctor. For this goal to achieve he worked hard all through his schooling. He got admission in S.P. Medical College, Bikaner and completed his M.B.B.S. in 1966. As his father was not in a condition to afford his medical studies, he gave tuition to schoolchildren for buying his medical textbooks. Because there was no electricity at home, he used to study in the Bikaner public park under lampposts. When he became a doctor, he got his first appointment at the same S.P. Medical College, Bikaner in the department of Physiology as a teacher (Demonstrator). He could never forget what he faced during his phase of medical studies and so he decided to help poor students by choosing 10 poor students every year and gifted them a set of medical textbooks each. He continued this help till the end. He took voluntary retirement from the post of Associate Professor in 1994. He then became the Managing Director of Meena Nursing Home of Bikaner. At this private hospital he made a rule, that 20% patients, who are poor, will be treated free of cost. On 29.04.1997 he departed from his beloved ones and took his last holy journey to Heaven.

Dr. (Mrs.) Meena Aeron, wife of Dr. Anil Kumar Aeron, also completed her M.B.B.S. in 1966 from S.P. Medical College, Bikaner. She worked in a number of government hospitals. She became a renowned gynecologist and obstetrician of Bikaner district. At the same time she helped her husband in raising his younger sisters and brothers. She also gifted him one son and two daughters and brought them up as good humans. After her voluntary retirement, she opened the first private nursing home in Bikaner. After the death of Dr. Anil Kumar Aeron she continued the holy task, started by her husband. But she could not live long apart from her husband and left this world to join him on 02.09.2002. She was in true means a loving wife and a caring mother.

Now Dr. Alok Aeron, son of late Dr. Anil Kumar Aeron and late Dr. (Mrs) Meena Aeron, in the memory of his father and mother with the aim of continuing the holy cause has started these scholarships.
