Munshi Usha Mujoo, Librarian Indian Institute of Public Administration, IP Estate, New Delhi, 110 002. “Life is no brief candle for me. It is a sort of splendid torch which I have got hold of for themoment and I want to make it burn as brightly as possible before handing it on to future generations.” – George Bernard Shaw

Abstract Precisely, this is what Professor P N Kaula a Kashmiri Pandit dreamt, realized and did before leaving for heavenly abode. A man with a roaring voice who could influence everyone with his charismatic discourses and in depth knowledge on any conceivable topic. A stalwart whose persona was larger than life, indeed a living legend and example for many not only in the profession but outside of it too.
