Hi Ramesha,
Dr.Venkat Pulla Australian Catholic University has just posted a comment on your blog post, My Mentor's Story, and you need to approve it:
I am shocked.
And I am speechless.
Too early for a doyen to pass.

TK has been a universal mentor. One of the more active members of a brigade that nurtured schools of social work in India. A good research methods teacher and a pilliar of strength to Madras School of Social Work.

I remember him when I first met him in 1978 my first year of teaching in India, hyderabad and subsequently several times.
He was completely inspiring and for a young teacher that I was - I watched him when he spoke.

Confidence, sense and strategy that was TK.

He helped me in working out formalities to make college of social work which was undergraduate private college into a post graduate college.
He was well respected throughout the country.

His leadership and combination with prof KV Ramana was perhaps the finest for quite many yester years.

The regal duo of the Association of Schools of Social Work in India-
they ushered many seminars and co
nfernces and provided leadership to curriculum development and review.

TK was a matter of fact man, frank, fearless, and charismatic.
His sense of humour and his wit and smile are unforgettable.
A man who recieved no awards, no accolades yet allowed others to strive and flourish.

Simple by nature and simple by habits.

People knew that he was a pillar of strength to Prof George in Madras School of Social Work.

TK was outspoken and strived for ethics in social work.

A befitting tribute to him can only be given nationally by an
organisation such as NAPSWI.

TK taught for many years research methods.

I am sure in memory of TK a special volume of applied contributions by select academics should be published and I am publicly urging Prof Sanjai Bhatt to take up this task and in my own humble way I will contribute to its successful collection and offer my services.

Perhaps the best three articles qualitative,quantitative -theory based and a mixed methods are offered a TK Nair Research Paper award each year at Napswi confernces.

Other regional associations and national associations that are touched by a social worker , a teacher a pioneer in community care for the frail aged can humbly replicate some of these suggestions .

Yes one final remark on this man that walked this part of earth until recently.

TK was a man of great humilty.

One big task in front he left for us in India and elsewhere in the world.

To cultivate humilty in social work.

In fond memory.
