I am very sad to read the news of Prof. Bronkhorst's sudden demise. We have known each other since 1977, when he went to Pune to study Sanskrit grammar traditionally with Prof. Kashinath Shastri Abhyankar. We used to meet at the sessions of the World Sanskrit Conference and on other occasions. He started an exchange programme with the University of Pune and invited students and scholars of that university to Laussanne. He was a versatile scholar and a prolific writer.
His passing away is an irreparable loss to Indology. My heartfelt condolences. Shrikant Bahulkar First Dalai Lama Chair Professor in Nalanda Studies Somaiya Vidyavihar University, Mumbai Senior Fellow, Oxford Centre for Hindu Studies Oxford University, U.K.
