My only interaction with her was in October,2007 in Delhi University, when she was the Chairperson of DST's PAC for screening of Research Projects. She conducted the presentations in an efficient and controlled manner and when I presented my proposal at 9AM (the first one), her words still reverbate in my ears " Dr Bharti, you have made an execellent presentation and you are doing good work"-those words are enough to stimulate, to encourage any body. May she rest in peace.
