Prof. Asok Mohanty was an accomplished professor and a polished individual. He had inspired many metallurgy students to pursue graduate study abroad, particularly in UK. Although I did not have a chance to study under him, I had the opportunity to meet him on several occasions during my visits to our Alma mater, when he served as the Principal of NITRkl. This is an admirable efforts by alumni to raise funds to honor Prof. Asok Mohanty by creating this Endowed Chair Professorship.
