Krishnan my dear,
I am optimistic about the fact that your soul is in NCBS Campus. You & me spent 3 hours (9am-12pm) on 24th when you advised me everything before few hours of your final journey. To our common friends, we were known as "Twin Brothers" and you got me to Bangalore so that we both could spent many years pursuing our research interest. Our Chamaeleons are at the NCBS, our Herpetology School Committee is without a Chairperson and our frog toxin research at IISc. & NCBS are incomplete. However, I am happy that you left for heaven and soon I will leave Bangalore. How can Sushil stay here without Krishnan. The Sandal wood saplings which you gave me on 24th at 11am will be planted at my native village in Odisha and the trees will be a silent spectator to our friendship until my death. Dear Krishnan, your twin brother will be in touch with Anand who first came to Bhubaneswar when he was a tiny boy. You left me and I will leave IISc., but your last handwritten text (some instruction to me) few hours before you left us and the last e-mail on 24th May regarding Gharial research, will remain with me for ever.
