[LIS-Forum] Prof. S. Parthasarthy

[Ashok Asundi]

Dear All Professionals,
It is very sad news, to know that Prof.S. Parthasarthy, former Head,INSDOC  is no more. Probably that was the last link connecting Dr. SRR with the entire professional chain of veterans who worked closely with the father of library science.  I am fortunate of being studied at INSDOC and I had the first meeting with him in Delhi and posed me a very warm welcome. Since then he has had lasting memory about our first meeting and that was his legacy. Even with that age he was agile professionally and actively participated in the meetings which attended.  Never used spects, his hearing was not much diminished and one would recall Sir MV whenever we met him.
Thank you Prof.K.S.Raghavan, by giving us Prof. Parthasarthy's key achievements and prestigious  positions he held in the profession. The profession is getting depleted with the loss of such personalities.
Pray Almighty let Prof. SP soul rest in peace.
Prof.A.Y.Asundi
