Death: The absolute truth...

A friend of mine sent me this link today morning: Cornell expresses condolences following student's death. It was hard to believe but was confirmed.

I last met him about 2 years ago when he was leaving the IITB campus. TLAVS (T. L. Aravind Vignesh Subramaniam) as he was affectionately called, was a gem of a person. He was so passionate about physics that he came to IITB to pursue Engineering Physics even though he had been selected for the MBBS programme at AIIMS.

He was a hostelmate and we had attended many courses and labs together. The IV semseter Digital Labs project was one time when I had worked closely with him. The cause of his death is still unknown. May his soul rest in peace.

We do not know when life may end but I do not want to believe it...
