Shankarji Jha (5 July 1960–10 May 2020)

[Nityanand Misra]

I came to know just now that one of our senior BVP members, Dr. Shankarji Jha (PhD, DLitt), passed away last night of a heart attack. He was 59. In 2016, he was kind enough to send me a signed copy of his exegetical English translation of the Rasagangadhara.

I am also very sorry to hear this news.  His article on the grammatical Paribhāṣās was included in the volume "Indian Grammars: Philology and History," edited by myself and Professor George Cardona.  He will be missed.
