Reminiscences of Babasaheb about Ramai :

" I have myself suffered many years in poverty . Even after returning from overseas with a legal degree , i had the difficulty practicing the law because of caste discrimination . Because of my financial struggles I used to eat just
broken rice and grew weak . One of my own children died of illness . I was too weak too even bury him ... My legal practice slowly improved but then fate struck another blow : my wife rama became grievously ill . The doctor warned that if she had another child ,
she would surely die . To keep her alive , then , we maintained celibacy ...

... She was so frail , I did everything in my power to save her ; we used all sorts of pills and injections . I spared no efforts . Yet she slipped away from this earth she left me '
Dr.Namdeo Nagade who recorded the above conversation wrote : " His (bahasaheb) voice caught and then a tear fell from his eye. He cried almost like a child. At this sight, everyone in the room started crying. I had never seen even a tear from his eyes before"
