Prof. Arun,

I am deeply saddened to learn about Dr. Rajasekhar's sad demise. Although I hadn't met him (and now will never meet him), I did learn a lot from his contributions in OA-India list. His passing away is indeed a loss to information science and open access in India.

Please convey our condolence to Dr. Rajasekshar's family.

Regards, Naimur

Dear Prof. Balakrishnan/ Prof. Menon/ Francis:

Kindly accept my heart felt condolences. Please convey the same to Mrs Rajashekar and other members of his family. Raja was one of the best information professionals of our country and had earned a reputation around the world. He played an important role in training young professionals in modern information dissemination tchniques and in promoting the open access culture in India. His passing away is a great loss to the profession. RIP.
