BK Gururaja Rao and I were classmates during our study for BE in Mech. ENGG at the University College of Engineering, Bangalore under the University of Mysore between 1954 and 1958. We were quite close friends. He used to stay in Madhva Sangha hostel in Chamarajapet and I was staying (even now I do) in Basavanagudi. I used to meet him in his hostel quite often. While in Collge we had joined the National Cadet Corps: he was very smart and had been promoted as a Sergeant.
He was a great friend - gentle and always helpful
(I think he passed BE in 1958 and not as mentioned in the (Obit)
So many happy memories fill my mind when I recollect.
The last time I met him was a few tears back, when I picked him up from his sister's place in Padmanabha Nagar toʻ attend some function
