June 16, 1933 (age 77)

After a distinguished academic career of more than fifty years, he retired as Professor of Electronics from the Delhi University, where he taught Microwave Electronics for more than thirty-five years. Education and He also worked with Professor Krishnaji and Doctor Prem Swarup studying microwave absorption in gases at moderate pressures which was published with appreciative references in contemporary research publications and advanced texts. He published 180 research publications in International journals spanning the fields of spectroscopy, semiconductor physics, magnetism. quantum electronics and microwave superconductivity. He established a large Microwave Research group at Delhi University (DU). He started teaching of Electronics as a discipline separate from Physics and played a key role in introducing electronics courses into regular science academic programmes all over the country. He was the first Head of the Department of Electronic Science at the South Campus of the Delhi University and the first Dean of the Faculty of Interdisciplinary and Applied Sciences in South Campus. In 1974 he became Professor of Physics and in 1980, the Head of the department and the Dean of the Faculty of Science, Delhi University. He also served as Pro-Vice Chancellor of Delhi University. He was the first to observe rotational transition in hydrogen bounded molecules. His other assignments included work at the University of Sheffield, United Kingdom University of Queensland, Australia. Pierre and Marie Curie University, France. And Tokyo Institute of Technology, Japan.
