I can’t believe!! Ranjan 'is' among one the best faculties, I came across
during my academic life at the Indian Institute of Crafts & Design, Jaipur,
India. He 'is' not only a teacher, mentor or guide for me, but the ‘Man of
Vison’! He ‘sculpted’ us as a ‘caring-friend’!!
I add my condolences and sorrow… For a student, his teacher cannot die
even his body get killed by the wheel of time!!
Best Regards,
