The Adoption And its Aftermath.

The conflicts between father ans son as  seen earlier weakens the  family business. No two individuals think alike.
 The father, from the old school of management, has his own idiosyncrasies and ideas of management. He might be slow in taking decisions. He would have his own coterie. They would have advised him for long. The growth of the  business would have been slow.

The son, in this case an adopted one, would be quick and sharp. He would have had a large exposure, having done his management courses abroad. He wants growth, not a tardy one but an accelerated rise. He hires professionals.They tell him the old managers ae no good. They should be replaced.
His modus operandi is different and fast.

The tussle starts.. Father, princely bred, feels he has been overwhelmed. He is hurt. It is natural, An eighty-three-year-old man, who had his own way of life  so long is now trapped by his foster son.
He is removed from the chairmanship of his company by the shareholders. His pain transforms into fury. He cancels the adoption decree and proclaims he has renounced his son.

The son, on the other hand, behaves even harsher. He speaks ill of his father. He cuts the remuneration paid by the company to the father. He revokes all sanctions to the old man. He is now the custodian of the business as per the share holding pattern, He and his wife hold the majority.


To get  going and to meet out his expenditure the father sells his house in Hyderabad. He proposes to sell his coffee estate in Coorg. The son  seeks the court's permission to stop the sale. The son's case is dismissed. So goes the.story.


Well, this is unbelievable.  Fairy tales are more credible, one feels. Now with the police complaints  and government intrusions  the conflict has turned ugly.

A foster son cannot become an own son whatever it could be and whoever it might be.

Propagation comes through with justifiable means.  Progeny is through
 the  rightful process, not by deceit and malice.
