R.I.P... R.D. SHARMA ...RIP

I Salute this Great Personality... He was Truly an Indian.

Legendary Mathematician, Science writer and the former president of Indian Science Writers Association Dr R D Sharma passed away here in Delhi on 7 Feb. He was 73.

An expert in scientific and agricultural communication, Sharma had about 40 years of experience in the field, during which he scripted more than 1,000 features on science and technology and agriculture.

He was recipient of a number of awards including the Indira Gandhi Prize for 2006 for popularisation of science and Dr Atma Ram Puruskar for lifetime contribution to scientific literature in Hindi, his son Anurag Sharma said.

The body has been donated to the Army Medical College and no cremation will take place, he said.

In 1995, Sharma received the national award for best coverage of science and technology in mass media from National Council for Science & Technology Communication (NCSTC) under the Department of Science and Technology.

He got the Indian Council of Agricultural Research (ICAR) award for excellence in agricultural journalism in 2004.

A Salute to the Great Soul...
