Family and Values
Sri T. V. Ramaswamy is the son of Dr. T. S. Viswanathan, who served as a Government Doctor.
As a medical practitioner, Dr. T. S. Viswanathan devoted himself primarily to human healthcare and free service to the society around him. His commitment was not merely professional but deeply humanitarian.
Consequently, his children were brought up largely in a rural environment and in a mixed social and cultural atmosphere, without distinctions based on caste, creed or religion. The family followed a simple and modest way of life within the home and did not seek to exhibit it outside.
These early experiences had a lasting influence on Sri T. V. Ramaswamy and shaped his outlook towards society, human relationships and service.
