Kol recalls the King's '80 visit as Prince of Wales

King Charles III, then a strapping 31-year-old Prince of Wales, had been fascinated by a trip to Kolkata in 1980 during which he visited the Mother House and met Mother Teresa for the first time. Their meeting, held behind closed doors, had lasted more than 20 minutes and the British monarch could recall it more than 35 years later when social worker Sunita Kumar, who had been present at the Mother House that day, gifted a photograph of Mother Teresa with him that was clicked soon after they met.
