Tribute to my father

It’s hard to define what a successful life is as each of us has different parameters. Time pauses for no one--people come and people go, but few remain etched in public memory. My father Dr S N Visvanath, a geoscientist was one such person. That he was very intelligent, humorous, erudite and compassionate was well known among his peers, friends and relatives. But to be remembered even 33 years after retirement from Oil India Limited was remarkable. Last year, a series of memorial lectures were flagged off as a tribute to him.
