Dear all, This is to inform with profound grief about the sad and sudden demise of Dr P. Lakshminarasimhan, former Joint Director (Scientist E), of BSI, Western Regional Center, Pune. It appears he briefly suffered with high fever and breathing problem, but could not get a ventilator in any hospital in Pune and breathed his last at around 02.30 hrs. this morning. Dr Lakshminarasimhan joined the Botanical Survey of India at its Andaman Nicobar Regional Center, Port Blair in early 1990s as Scientist B. Later he served at BSI, Pune, Royal Botanic Gardens at Kew (as Indian Botanical Liaison Officer), Central National Herbarium, Howrah and Western Regional Center, Pune in different capacities and finally retired on superannuation as Scientist E on 31st August, 2019 after a very very distinguished carrier. He was a very critical researcher and a very good plant taxonomist. Helpful attitude, sincerity, dynamism at the place of work, ability to take quick decisions and humility was the hallmark of his persona. As Indian Botanical Liaison Officer at RBG, Kew, he helped the taxonomists not only within and out side BSI in India but also those in other parts of the Indian subcontinent. He helped and endeared hundreds of young and practicing plant taxonomists through a series of nomenclature workshops that he so meticulously convened in different parts of the country, the last one being as recent as January this year at Shillong. In his death the BSI and entire taxonomist fraternity of the country has lost a good taxonomist, a dependable colleague, an able administrator and a fine human being. At this hour of grief I convey my heartfelt condolences to the bereaved family and pray the God to grant sadgati to the departed soul. D.K. Singh Dr D.K.
