Bengaluru Airport helps man find his lost watch, he shares a heartening post
When Anders Andersen lost his grandfather's watch at Bengaluru airport, he had no hopes of finding it again. But thankfully the airport authorities were able to find it back.
There are several times when we are at the airport; we might forget something or the other behind. It could be a bag, bracelet, or anything that we lose, and once we leave them behind, there are very few chances of finding them again. But in a recent turn of events, when a man left his watch at Bengaluru's Kempegowda International Airport, he never thought that the airport authorities would find it again for him.
Businessman Anders Andersen, who recently travelled to India, stated on LinkedIn that he accidentally left his watch in one of the X-ray trays when returning to Denmark. The watch belonged to his late grandfather and held a sentimental meaning for him.
He further added, "But incredibly(!), Sunday morning @ 01:41am, I received a mail from Bengaluru Airport Terminal Lost & Found confirming that they had recovered my watch and that it was ready for pick-up in the airport. A representative from our local partner TCS then drove out to the airport and picked up the watch. And another representative due for returning to Denmark brought my watch back to my wrist, where it is again now."
