Dr K.C. Singhal, Professor of International Economics and Marketing at the Punjab School of Management Studies, Punjabi University, Patiala, was a fine human being and dedicated socio-political activist. He died on March 23 at the PGI from a liver ailment.
Known for his frank and liberal views, Dr Singhal served as the president and the secretary of the Punjabi University Teachers Association and also as the convener of the Punjab Federation of University Teachers Association. He not only fought for the cause of the teaching community but also for students. He never shied away from taking on the establishment, if he felt that it was working against academic interests and the student community. Because of his efforts, the system of rotation of headship was introduced in Punjabi University.
A secular man to the core, he was the founder-president of the Association for Democratic Rights and through his initiative several studies regarding disasters such as the Bhopal gas tragedy were published. He also got documents published with regard to the police firing on workers of the Abohar spinning mill and the situation relating to human rights in Punjab which was presented at the Vienna United Nations Convention on Human Rights in 1992. He also published a document, “Who are guilty?” about the anti-Sikh riots in Delhi and other parts of the country.
Dean of the Faculty of Business Studies from 1998 to 2000, Dr Singhal also did consultancy projects for BHEL and the Department of Personnel and Administrative Reforms, Ministry of Home, Government of India.
He won the gold medal for securing the first position in MA (Economics) and was also the winner of N.V. Gadgil Prize in Punjabi University. Dr Singhal got a pre-Ph.D grade “A” from Jawaharlal Nehru University. He was a merit scholarship holder right up to graduation which he did with mathematics and economics.
The author of 40 research papers in journals of international and national repute, including Economic and Political Weekly and The Indian Economic Journal, Dr Singhal hailed from Lehragaga town in Sangrur district. He was 58. He was a son-in-law of the late Sher Singh Gupta, a well-known journalist.
The family, friends and well-wishers will gather to pay tributes to him in Model Town, Patiala, on Sunday.
He is survived by his wife, Mrs Parveen Singhal, who is also a teacher at Punjabi University, and a son and daughter.
