Friends,

I have to report with a heavy heart that I just came to know that Professor Dr. Abhijit Ghosh, Jadavpur University, passed away yesterday within the University premises. He was just 60. After Chatterji, Przyluski, Burrow and Kuiper, Ghosh came to be known as the best authority on Austric elements in Vedic. Often appearing a hard non-conformist Ghosh had many human qualities and felt for and helped others. His loss creates a vacuum that will be felt for a long time.
