Internet praises

"Meet Ramswaroop Mund, a textile businessman in Surat originally from Rajasthan. This Diwali, he gifted ₹1 LAKH CASH to each of his 50 employees, along with special gifts. But the money isn't the most heartwarming part. His philosophy is simple: Why should Diwali celebrations be limited to his own home? The families of those who work hard alongside him deserve to celebrate with equal happiness. He doesn't treat his employees merely as workers; he considers them part of his family. Money can make you wealthy, but a heart like this makes you truly RICH," read the post.

Reacting to it, a user wrote in the comments section, "Corporates should have some shame. They give 100gm kaju badam." "The 'why should Diwali be limited to my home' part got me. and handing it over on puja thalis instead of envelopes, that's not a bonus, that's family," remarked another.
