RIP M Murali, Director General, National Highways Builders Federation (NHBF) passed away on May 17, 2016. He was always on the forefront in leading the nodal agency representing highway developers. With more than three decades of wide experience across sectors, he was indeed a technocrat and management expert and has always been keen in ensuring the apex body he used to head achieves its targets. Describing his assignment with NHBF as one of most interesting and challenging ones of his career, he once told CW: ´My mantra for success is: There is no substitute for hard work; we need to knock on doors to seek as many opportunities as possible.´ He has extended his support to CW several times with much vigour and zeal. A kind gentleman and always approachable, the industry will miss his presence-... rest in peace!
