1. In 1965, epigraphist Śri N. Lakshminārāyaṇa Rao, one of the examiners of a young Ph.D candidate, recommended that he be awarded a Ph.D, but also commented, “This candidate thinks he is infallible, like Brihaspati.”
2. Little did he know that this candidate would turn out to be one of the FINEST epigraphist India had ever seen. How I wish he was alive with us today! Why is that such scholars leave this mortal world so early, creating a void which we can never fill?
