Prof. Sultan Akthar passed away on 19th April, 2010. He was one of the legends in spreading Applied Psychology throughout India. Very few know about his affiliation with one football club in Kolkata. I have noticed his keen interest in sports specially football. Once I asked him. He smiled and told me his nostalgia about Mohomeddan sporting club of Kolkata. Once, he played in this club. Watching my avoidance to attend conferences, once he patted me and encouraged to attend all the conferences. He loved me as his own son. He was just like a father figure of IAAP. Despite his serious illness, he attended the conferences and executive meetings taking hectic pains of the rail and road journey. He was a role model of every Indian Psychologist.
