OBITUARY
Dr. S.R.Pramanik, a renowned metallurgist and General Manager I/c of RDCIS/ SAIL in 1978-79 breathed
his last yesterday morning at around 8 AM in Kolkata where he had settled
after his retirement from MECON Ltd, Ranchi as Director. Dr. Pramanik
joined CEDB of HSL and rose to become Director (Technical) of MECON and
remained on this post till his retirement.
He brought about remarkable
changes in RDCIS administration then. Though he served RDCIS for very short period yet he will
be remembered by initial batches of RDCIS Engineers and Researchers for his many
contributions - including technical and organisational - he made to the
functioning of RDCIS in its early days. He will always be remembered for
establishing the RDCIS Sub Centres (known as Site Offices then) which helped
improve efficiency of RDCIS Engineers during their trial / visits to the
plants.
I, as
President of ARDE (and SEFI rep) then, had chance of closer interaction with Dr.
Pramanik on the issue of (i) Merger of MECON with SAIL and (ii) Expansion of
DAV Jawahar Vidya Mandir, Shyamali to accommodate ever increasing number of
SAIL/ MECON employees and sharing of the expenses by SAIL and MECON.
We, the
members of SEEA and FORSE mourn his death and pray for peace to the departed
soul and courage to his family members to bear the loss.
