Grateful for 'formative' schooling, he took special interest in SRV's devpt

IN the passing of eminent space scientist K Kasturirangan, the SRV High School in Kochi has lost an illustrious alumnus. The school held a special place in his heart and he had always been in touch with the Old Students' Association (OSA) office-bearers to enquire about the activities happening there.

"Right from the launch of OSA in 2003, Kasturirangan had been actively associated with the efforts to improve his alma mater," former SRV OSA president and Krishna Hospital director Dr A K Sabapathy tells TNIE. Kasturirangan joined SRV in Class 3, in 1947, he recalled.
