This is deeply saddening news. Bhaskar sir played a major role in helping me cultivate my interest in taxonomy. He willingly allowed me to join him on collection trips when I initially began learning about plants and never took more than a few hours to respond to any of my questions regarding Imaptiens. I will always remember how he spotted a specimen about 30 feet uphill of us in Chikamagalur and raced away before any of us could even start climbing! A great loss indeed.
