Dr. Gurcharan Singh- crossed 8000 messages- efi Guru & Guide

[J.M. Garg]

Dear members,

I always wondered at the energy with which he shaped efi since he joined efi in Nov.'2009. It was when indiantreepix (now efi) was in its nascent stage. I know he will even fight for the right cause & force the issue on matters of importance like mentioning author citation etc. From his guidance, efi has evolved as an institution on national importance, which is also involved in documentation of Indian Flora in the form of efi website.

 

He is the first member to cross 8000 posts (almost 10% of total messages) on efi. His details can be seen at

https://groups.google.com/groups/profile?hl=en&enc_user=eXsq6hIAAABtPVFqUivGRZQfFgdlDyQm8rhlH0Pnl47z4AZhN98BFg&group=indiantreepix

 

On this teachers day, we privately deliberated about him. Lot of epithets came to our mind for him like Pitamaha, Sarathi, Guide, Guru, Mahaguru, Living/Walking Encyclopedia of Indian Plants etc. However, we decided let something automatically stick to him on efi rather than we imposing ourselves.

 

My salute to him on being a fatherly figure & a great guide & teacher on efi.

Sir,
During my short period as a member of EFI, Gurcharan ji has already
provided valuable lessons in his posts... (and sometimes in his
silence too), I am indebted to him for being patient and kind to
laymen like me who can be quite exasperating at times....
Thank you Gurcharan ji for being the teacher and the person you
are...
regards
Alok
