Date: Mon, 11 Feb 2013 12:04:12 +0530 From: Dr.S.Siva Chidambaram <siva.chidambaram@nipfp.org.in> I am deeply saddened to hear of the passing of Prof. M.A. Gopinath. My deepest sympathy to the Prof. M.A. Gobinath family. I was a student of his way back in 1992-1994 at DRTC. He was the greatest teacher I ever had. He had a passion for the students that shined brightly and made you want to be the best student you could be. He was a brilliant teacher and I look back in gratitude because he changed me. May God bless and keep you in peace as you mourn your loss. Prof. MAG will always hold a special place in my heart. While I mourn the loss of a great man, I feel blessed and honored that he was a part of my life. God Bless (Yesterday 10/2/2013 He got massive heart attack in hospital at Bangalore. It seems His body is still Kept in the hospital because his son yet to come from USA) -- Dr.S.Siva Chidambaram Senior Library and Information Officer National Institute of Public Finance and Policy (Autonomous Institute of Min. of Finance, Govt.
