Relax and Enjoy during IANCON 2019 October 3-6, 2019


My first memory of Dr K K Sinha takes

me back to my school days nearly fi�y years

back. At that �me he was posted in

Rajendra Medical College, Ranchi (RMCH)

– now known as RIMS. My father was also

posted there and we used to live in the

same Doctors' Colony of RMCH. At that

�me he was to me - one of my many

friendly neighbourhood uncles. At that

�me RMCH had a ga laxy of great

academicians and clinicians on its faculty

and he had just joined that great group.

But, very soon his reputa�on started

spreading like wild fire and he started

becoming famous. I realized this when

many of my friends and rela�ves started

asking us to book an appointment with

him.

Dr Krishna Kant Sinha, popularly

known as 'Dr K K Sinha', was born on 11 Jan

1931 at Maner near Patna in Bihar. His

ini�al schooling was at Maner itself where

his father was a teacher. He was bright in

studies right from the beginning and

passed his matricula�on in 1946 in the first

division – which was a big thing those days.

A�er that he joined the pres�gious BHU

( B e n a r a s H i n d u U n i v e r s i t y ) f o r

Intermediate Science (I Sc). At that �me Dr

S Radhakrishnan was the vice chancellor of

BHU and Dr K K Sinha o�en narrated many

of his anecdotes to his students. A�er that

he started h is medica l studies at

Darbhanga Medical College (DMCH) and

passed MBBS with flying colours in 1953.

He got gold medals for topping in medicine

and surgery. He had Honours in Medicine

which was a rare dis�nc�on those days. He

Dr. K.K. Sinha, MD, FRCP, FICP, FIAN

did his MD in medicine also form DMCH

and served there for two years as Resident

Medical Officer.

His next leap was in 1958 when he

decided to go for advanced training and

MRCP to England. He had intense

preparatory training in Edinburgh General

Hospital and Royal Infirmary which he

called 'highly educa�ve and s�mula�ng'.

He was trained by brilliant teachers like

Stanley Davidson of “Davidson's Principle

& Prac�ce of Medicine” fame and Donald

Hunter, the Editor of famous book of

Robert Hutchison's 'Clinical Methods'. He

sharpened his clinical skills with these

great teachers of Edinburgh Medical

University. He completed his MRCP in

1959 from Edinburgh and worked there as

resident in neurology & neurosurgery in

different hospitals of United Kingdom.

He returned homeward in 1961.

Before joining the newly started Ranchi

Medical College as a tutor in medicine

department he also worked in Patna

M e d i c a l C o l l e g e f o r s o m e � m e .

Incidentally, he was the first teacher to join

the newly formed department of Medicine

of this new medical college. Within three

years he became a lecturer in medicine and

neurology.

As �me passed his love for neurology

became more intense and he decided to go

to USA where he worked in Veterans

Hospital in Hynes, Chicago of North

Western University Medical School. This

was a huge hospital with 275 beds for

Neurology alone. He gained experience by

working here with great neurologists and

came back to Ranchi a�er some �me.

Apart from RMCH he started his own

private prac�ce also. Soon his popularity

went soaring high and he became one of

the first choices of pa�ents for medicine

and neurology not only for undivided state

of Bihar and Jharkhand but for the whole of

Eastern India.

Govt of Bihar banned private prac�ce

in Bihar in 1976 and within a week he

resigned from service as it was not possible

for him to deny services to huge number

of pa�ents in his private prac�ce. Even

a�er resigning from RMCH he con�nued

t e a c h i n g a n d m e n t o r i n g m a n y

postgraduate students in his own private

clinic. His students say that he had very

good grasp of all branches of medicine and

could teach cardiology, psychiatry,

neurosurgery for hours together. It is very

rare and difficult for a busy prac��oner like

him to keep his academic interest alive. He

took part in lot of academic ac�vi�es and

started an Academic Medical Forum for

upda�ng the medical skills and knowledge

of doctors by mutual interac�on on a

regular basis. He also started a journal,

'Physician India'. His academic skills and

inclina�ons were noted by Neurological

Society of India and in 1984 he was given

the responsibility of publishing the

CME book of “Progress in Cl inical

Neurosciences” and convening the CME

programs. Next year this publica�on came

out with contribu�ons from various

neuroscien�sts of India and abroad. The

impact was so strong that he was given the

responsibility of bringing out this annual

CME publica�on from 1985-1990.

He was the founder secretary of

Associa�on of Neuroscien�sts of Eastern

India (ANEI) in 1990 and con�nued �ll

1997. The first CME of ANEI was organized

at Ranchi in 1991 and he started a CME

book “Advances in Clinical Neurosciences”

as founder chief editor. He was again the

founder chief editor of an addi�onal

supplement book, “Some Aspects of

History Neurosciences” from 2000 to 2004

of which 4 edi�ons were published .

To his credit he had numerous honours

and awards conferred upon him by medical

and non-medica l organisa�ons. A

popularity survey by Hindustan,a Hindi

newspaper found him to be the most

popular person in Jharkhand- be�er than

chief minister and poli�cians of that �me.

This was largely because he was considered

an excellent physician with a healing touch

and a humane approach- physician with a

golden heart.

He was awarded Fellowship of Royal

College of Physicians ( FRCP). In 2000 he

was unanimously elected the founder

chairman of The Associa�on of Physicians

of India, Jharkhand chapter. He was also

Dr. K.K. Sinha

Dr. P.M. Dalal

“JUST A TRIM TAB"

Prof P. M. Dalal was a trim tab for stroke

in India. The trim tab is a small rudder

which turns the big rudder so that a huge

ship can go in the right direc�on. He gave

direc�on to stroke care in India. His name in

India and interna�onally is synonymous

with stroke. He was a giant and I have been

lucky to be trained by him.

He was born on 29th January, 1932 in

Ahmadabad (Gujarat- India). In MBBS and

MD he got the Gold Medal for ranking first

in Mumbai university.

In 1960-62 he was awarded the

R o c ke f e l l e r f o u n d a � o n r e s e a r c h

fellowship in neurology. and neuro

pathology and went to Harvard medical

school, Boston (USA). Here he came in

contact with Prof. Raymond Adams and

Prof. C. Miller Fisher who shaped his

thinking and ignited his interest in stroke.

In 1966 he along with Prof. R. Adams and C.

M. Fisher wrote the Cerebra vascular

disease chapter of the Harrison principal of

internal medicine, a great achievement at

that �me.

In 1968-69 he went as a research fellow

to Oxford, where he did some pioneering

work on lab thrombolysis which was

published in the Nature Journal. Later he

came back to India and joined the B Y L Nair

hospital. Here he con�nued to pursue

research in stroke and was one of the

pioneers to publish stroke epidemiology

from India. He was one of the first

Neurologists to ac�vely do direct puncture

caro�d angiography in the1960's. In 1978-

81 he was the DST/ICMR- All India

coordinator for stroke studies and during

1980-86 was appointed the WHO expert

member on the Interna�onal panel on

neurosciences. In 1983 he was nominated

as a research scien�st to the NIH- USA. In

1987 he gave the Prof. Jacob Chandy

ora�on in the neurological society of India.

In 1995 he was awarded the pres�gious BC

Roy award. In 2004 he received the

Life�me achievement award on stroke

from Neuroscience India Group. He

pursued a mul�dimensional career while

also serving as the chief of neurosciences in

H. N. hospital and research center and as a

consultant neurologist at Lilava� hospital

and research center. He was a prolific

writer and had more then 120 na�onal

and interna�onal publica�ons to his

credit.

In life I would say nothing ma�ered more

to him than pa�ents and the science. He

was a strict disciplinarian. One of my

profound memories was of the �me we

would work well late in to the night as

students at Nair hospital in his unit, filling

out detailed neurological examina�on for

the next day rounds. In his life, he trained a

number of neurologist who have then gone

on to be leaders in their fields. He would

o�en say, " I would rather be a teacher than

a friend to my juniors". His passion for

excellence in science was the driving force

behind all his ac�vi�es. His passing away

from a prolonged illness is a great loss to

stroke/ neurology in India and the world.

had numerous publica�ons to his credit in

various na�onal and interna�onal journals.

His area of special interest included

hereditary ataxia in Eastern India, Japanese

Encephali�s, Movement Disorders,

Parkinson's disease, Wilson's disease &

other hereditary and gene�c Disorders of

the Nervous system. In spite of his busy

clinical schedule he was ac�vely involved in

organizing various state and na�onal level

conferences from �me to �me including

the historic first annual conference of

Indian Academy of Neurology - IAN at

Ranchi in 1993 .

He was a very ac�ve social worker. He

never missed his daily rou�ne of walking

and reading and did find some �me for

gardening.

He was unwell for some �me and thbreathed his last on 26 April 2019 at his

residence, 'Mansarovar' in Bariatu, Ranchi.

He has le� behind his mourning family of

w i f e , a s o n , t h r e e d a u g h t e r s ,

grandchildren, a large number of friends,

rela�ves and his dear pa�ents whom he

served nearly �ll his end. With his

brilliance, his immense knowledge and

experience and his sympathe�c non-

commercial humane approach to pa�ents

he has set a very high standard of medical

treatment for all others to learn and follow.

A journalist of Kushwant Singh's

repute visited him in 1980 and he wrote in

his column-“ Ranchi is known for two

things- Main Road and Dr K K Sinha” and so

say all of us. Dr K K Sinha will always remain

alive as long as his pa�ents, students and

friends live. May his soul rest in peace.

Dr. C.M. Sharma

With profound grief I share with you the

sad news of sudden demise of Dr. Chandra

Mohan Sharma, Senior Professor and unit

h e a d ( E x H e a d o f D e p a r t m e nt o f

Neurology) at SMS Hospital, Jaipur. He

passed away on the un-fateful morning of

15th August, 2019.

Born on 6th May 1959 in a religious

family, Dr. Sharma was an obedient son of

Smt. Late Pushpa Devi Sharma and

eminent Neurologist of Jaipur Dr. Brij

Mohan Sharma. His grandfather (BABA),

Pandit Deen Dayal Sharma, was a famous

astrologer of his �me whom Ex Prime

minister Smt.Indira Gandhi used to visit

from �me to �me in Jaipur. His younger

brother, Dr. Shashi Mohan Sharma is an

esteemed Cardiologist and an Addi�onal

Principal of SMS Medical College Jaipur. He

was fortunate to have a very kind and

caring wife, Mrs. Swa� Sharma and two

loving daughters, Dr. Shanoo and Shradha

Sharma. He was an ardent supporter and

promoter of “Be� Bachao Be� Padaho”

campaign. Both his daughters are highly

educated and extremely independent

females. An extremely spiritual and god

loving man, Dr. C.M. Sharma was a firm

believer in “KARMA”. He loved music and

traveling, and had explored almost more

than half of the world. He always led an

extremely disciplined life with an in depth

knowledge of current and poli�cal affairs.

Dr. Sharma did his MBBS from SMS

Medical College Jaipur, 1977 Batch. Always

with a smile on his face, he was the blue

eyed boy of his batch and was a favourite

amongst his batch mates. He used to take

part in cultural programs of college

including mimicry of teachers etc. He did

his MD in General Medicine from SMS

Medical College Jaipur in 1987 and DM in

Neurology from King Edward Memorial

Hospital and Seth Gordhandas Sunderdas

Medical College, Mumbai in 1990. Later he

joined SMS Medical College, Jaipur as an

Assistant Professor in the department of

Neurology in 1991. He always had utmost

regard for his teachers and made it a point

to visit them on the occasion of 'Guru

Poornima'. Dr. B.S. Singhal, Dr. Parveena

Shah and Dr. Nadir E Bharucha were among

his most admired teachers.

He was a well known clinician and

neurologist, with a stethoscope, hammer

and ophthalmo-scope always by his side,

trea�ng and serving his pa�ents with

utmost care and compassion. Always

talking about basics of Neurology, bedside

neurological examina�on and discussion of

differen�al diagnosis while taking rounds

of the ward at the SMS hospital where he

worked, Dr. C.M. Sharma encouraged the

residents at the hospital to read text books

and monograms more and more. He

believed in team work and laid emphasis

on a disciplined way of working. He always

appreciated and mo�vated his students,

and I was fortunate enough to be the first

registered DM candidate under him and

also worked as a faculty member with him

�ll his last day. More than 50 of his papers

have been published in various Na�onal

and Interna�onal medical journals and

apart from epilepsy neuromuscular

disorders, degenera�ve ataxias and

demyelina�ng disorders were his areas of

interest.

Post taking charge as the 'Head of

Department of Neurology' at SMS hospital,

through his persistent efforts he got the

whole wing renovated comprising of a new

electrophysiology lab, air-condi�oned

wards with quality ma�resses and clean

sheets (washed from �me to �me in ward

by machines), cushioned tables for the

a�endants to sit at, well equipped seminar

room and departmental library etc. The

cleanliness of the ward and the utmost

care with which the pa�ents were treated

during that �me was appreciated by the

then Chief Minister of Rajasthan,

Vasundhara Raje Ji. Even the na�onal

media channel like NDTV acknowledged Dr.

Sharma's efforts.

An amazing human being with good

intentions who never compromised with

his principles, he used to believe in the

mantra "Maan Changa To Katho� Me

Ganga- eu� paxk� dBksrh� esa� xaxk". He was a

perfect family man who always took care of

every one, from his near & dear ones to

distant rela�ves. He was always the first

one to wish people on their birthdays or

other special occasions. He was never

inclined towards name, fame or posts. An

extremely k ind hearted soul with

compassion towards needy and under

privileged, Dr. Sharma had devoted himself

to selfless service of leprosy families at

“KUSTHA ASHRMA” for almost 30 years.

Every year on 'Na�onal Epilepsy Day' he

tried to create awareness by educa�ng the

public by seminars, posters, audio & visual

screening through newspaper, radio and

TV, and by distribu�ng free medicines to

the pa�ents. He even used to help needy

pa�ents financially, the ones who couldn't

afford treatments on their own.

He introduced 'BM Sharma Ora�on' in

1997 in the name of his father who was the

founder member of IEA JAIPUR CHAPTER

during Annual Joint Conferences of IEA &

IES at Jaipur where Dr B Ramamurthi

delivered the first ora�on.

Dr. C.M. Sharma's passing away is a big

loss to not only his family and loved ones

but also to the whole neurology and

medical fraternity. It is difficult to come

across such an amazing person personally

as well as professionally. He will always be

fondly remembered as one of the most

valued gems of the medical world.

covering a range of topics from basics of

e p i l e p to ge n e s i s a n d n et wo r ks to

presurgical evalua�on and surgical op�ons

of drug refractory epilepsy.

The hands-on EEG and video-EEG in

groups covered topics including electr-

odes, montages & ac�va�on procedures,

EEG artefacts and benign variants, focal

and general ized EEG pa�erns and

semiology and ictal pa�erns of temporal

and extratemporal lobe epilepsy. A live

demonstra�on of High density (256

channels) EEG with a preceding lecture on

Presurgical evalua�on using Electrical

Source Imaging generated a lot of interest

amongst the audience.

Another highlight was the panel

discussion on SUDEP which helped cleared

many doubts among the delegates.

A Quiz was held on the last day of the

school with the purpose of self assessment

as well as to encourage the delegates. The

Inaugura�on: Dr. Amita Bhargava, Jodhpur, Dr. Manjari Tripathi, New Delhi, Dr. M. Gourie Devi, New Delhi, Dr. Sanjeev Thomas, Thiruvananathapuram and Dr. Samitha Panda, Jodhpur with Chief Guest Prof. S.S.Rathore, Principal of Dr. S.N. Medical College and Guest of Honour

Quiz masters were Dr. Ashalatha R. from

SCTIMST, Thiruvanantha-puram and Dr.

Pramod Krishnan from Bengaluru. The first

prize was won by Dr. Shivan Kesavan from

Chandigarh, second prize by Dr. Jason

Ambrose F. from Tirunelveli, third prize by

Dr. Aparajita Cha�erjee from Bengaluru

and fourth prize by Dr. Ch. Anusha from

Vishakhapa�anam. The prizes included

cash prize with book prize and cer�ficate.

The overa l l exper ience by the

delegates and the faculty was fulfilling as

provided by the feedback received. Most

appreciated the group ac�vi�es and

preferred this modality of teaching for both

the theore�cal aspects as well as EEG, and

hoped this trend will be con�nued in the

subsequent years.
