This is truly a shocking news. All the old timers (of the 1984-87 era) at seepz would remember his presence. His face and body language seemingly exhibiting a laissez-faire attitude, masked a very serious and extremely helpful disposition. I was a major beneficiary of his benevolence, as I could get the resources from his manufacturing LOB (normally, or through “force”), whenever I ran into problems. He never failed to bring a smile on your face, irrespective of how tight a situation you found yourself in. Truly a great friend one was lucky to have had.
May his soul rest in peace and heartfelt condolences to his family.

Ramesh : I am shocked and very sad with this news. I still remember Balaji’s No nonsense and “Bindas” attitude. I met him longtime back in Atlanta but never thought that I will not meet him again. Please convey my condolences to his family. May his soul rest in peace !.

Sorry to hear this sad news. I used to meet him at the Hindu Temple Atlanta every week. He was my manager/lobic when I joined TBL in 1986. May his soul rest in peace.

I am shocked to read this news. Balaji was a good friend of mine. Balaji came to meet me and my wife at the Atlanta airport in October 2008. I recently gave his number to my brother who needed some help in Atlanta. They even spoke to each other on phone, may be a month back. This news has come as a shock to me, my wife and my brother.
We spent a lot of time together in TUL and we also took robot programming training together in Asea, Milton Keynes, UK in 1986.
May God rest his soul in peace.
