It is with deep sorrow that we learnt the sad demise of Dr. B. Bhar,[Figure - 1] who breathed his last on 1 December 2004 at his Kolkata residence. Dr. B. Bhar has made great impact on occupational health in India and abroad. Dr. Bhar was a core member of Howrah Branch, served the Indian Association of Occupational Health with distinction as General Secretary (1958-1959), as associate editor of Indian Journal of Industrial Medicine (1959-1968) and rose to become the national president of IAOH in the year 1970. He took over as editor of Indian Journal of Industrial Medicine in the year 1975 and served as editor till 1982. He was a distinguished central council member till 1998. He believed in democratic functioning of the association and supporting the right cause, man with human touch arousing both friendship and respect around him. The IAOH shares in the grief of all those close to Dr. B. Bhar and our condolences to his family members.
