A Doyen Passes Away

Dr Bharat Ram

1914-2007

With deep sorrow we convey the news of the sad demise of our beloved former Chairman of LSR College, who left for Heavenly Abode on Tuesday, 10 July 2007 after a prolonged illness.

Born on 15 October 1914 in Delhi, he graduated in Economics with Honours  from St. Stephens College in 1935. He joined Delhi Cloth Mills Ltd. (DCM) in 1935 as an apprentice and rose to the position of Chairman and Managing Director in 1958. When he passed away he was the Chariman Emeritus of the company.

He took keen interest in social and public affairs and made outstanding contributions to the cause of education and sports. To us he was a Doyen of understanding and astute leadership who guided our destiny for decades.

A veteran industrialist whose acumen and philanthropy were behind a host of well known business and educational institutions such as SRF Ltd and other entities of the DCM Group. He was very closely involved with prestigious organisations like Ganga Ram Hospital, Shri Ram College of Commerce, Lady Shri Ram College, the Delhi Golf Club and the Shri Ram Centre

In a tribute to his stature, UPA chairperson Sonia Gandhi, her son  Rahul, PRIME MINISTER Manmohan Singh and a galaxy of political and corporate leaders joined his family members at his funeral on Wednesday, 11 July at the Lodhi Road crematorium.
