India is the brain hub of the world’s scientific research. When it comes to Indian science, how can one forget the contributions of Bengal, and Kolkata? If you calculate the number of Nobel prize winners from India, you will find an astounding majority of them are connected to Kolkata. Dr. CV Raman was highly connected to the Indian Association of Cultivation of Science [IACS], Kolkata where he did the major work which brought him the Nobel Prize in 1930 [1,2]. In 1917, he was appointed to the Palit chair of physics at Raza bazar Science College, University of Calcutta [1]. Yet surprisingly, many researchers in Bengal were unrecognized and didn’t receive their deserved fame. Their work sang but they were unsung. In this editorial, we try to know about one such legendary Indian Physician-Doctor who hadn’t received the proper recognition he deserved.
