a Complete Family Man, indeed !

Recalling Kamakshi , the brilliant lovable Lecturer – Reader

The Shaheed Bhagat Singh fraternity expresses its intense grief and deepfelt sense if loss at the tragic and untimely passing away of

Ms Kamakshi Trehan , Reader in Mathematics and the seniormost lady academic of the college , on October 24 1993 .

Born on December 4 , 1946 and educated in DTEA School and Ramjas College in the Capital , with specialization in Mathematical Topology ,

Kamakshi ’s student career was , marked both by cultureprizes , and by academic brilliance that secured her two top University of Delhi positions :

second in BA Mathematics Honours in 1966 , and fourth in MA Mathematics in 1968 .

Joining the college as lecturer on October 26, 1968 she used her culturetalents , especially in vocal music , and her creative skills in helping develop

cultural traditions of the college , having been President Fine Arts Society in 1968 – 1969 itself .

A dedicated academic , she was member of the University’s Faculty of Arts form August 7, 1982 to August 6, 1985 and was Member

Faculty of Mathematical Sciences since August 7 ,1991 .

Warm , friendly and ever gentle , Kamakshi endeared herself to one and all and her loss is indeed an irreparable one .

May the departed soul rest in peace and my God grant her husband Dinesh , son Amit and daughter Parul and other loved ones courage

to hear the great loss .

Kamakshi , along with Department of Mathematics founder Prof R R Chowdhry , steered the Department through

the challenging formative years .

Later , Indra Chopra ( nee Khattar ) joined , as did Dr Kulanand Sharma and Ms Darshan Kumari , all of whom

have been inspired by Kamakshi ’s brave , brilliant ways and have kept the Maths banner flying high .

The College awards Kamakshi Trehan Gold Medals to DU / College toppers at every Annual / College Day .
