Grateful to Prof. Vikrant Jain for the connection. The evening ended on a delightful note with a chance encounter with the ever-smiling Prof. R. N. Singh during his evening walk.

A meeting with Prof. Tandon is like reading a hundred papers! Immensely motivating to see the passion of someone who once taught my late PhD supervisor, Prof. Mahanta, at DU. It will be an absolute honor to work with him in the coming months.
