The retired BMTC driver, known as Srikanth Sharma, has garnered national attention for his commitment to preserving and disseminating historical knowledge. Despite leading a demanding life as a bus driver, Sharma devoted his free time to researching and collecting historical artifacts and documents.
Sharma’s collection includes rare manuscripts, ancient coins, vintage photographs, and documents that shed light on India’s rich and diverse history. He has painstakingly cataloged and preserved these artifacts, often at great personal expense, to ensure they are safeguarded for future generations.
In addition to his collection, Sharma has also been actively involved in organizing exhibitions, workshops, and awareness campaigns to promote historical awareness and cultural appreciation among students and the general public.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi, in a recent interaction with Sharma, commended his dedication and described him as a “custodian of India’s heritage.” The PM praised Sharma’s unwavering commitment to preserving the nation’s cultural treasures and his efforts to instill a sense of pride and curiosity about India’s past.
The PM’s recognition has been widely celebrated, with many lauding Sharma’s passion and resilience in the face of financial and logistical challenges.

His tireless pursuit of history serves as a reminder of the wealth of cultural and historical knowledge that lies within the country’s borders and the vital role individuals can play in its preservation and dissemination.
As the retired BMTC driver continues to inspire with his dedication to India’s heritage, his efforts reinforce the significance of nurturing a sense of curiosity, pride, and respect for the country’s rich cultural and historical legacy.
