I had on many occasions interacted with this great and very refined LIS professional and had invited him as a guest speaker. Very jovial and caring personality with a great sense of humour. It is a huge loss to our profession and have personally lost a great friend. May Almighty give enough courage to his family members to bear this loss. Venky RIP.
