Shraddheya Shri Dattatreya Devidas Didolkar
The Foundation Stone of the Didolkar Family Legacy
Every enduring legacy begins with one who quietly lays the foundation for those yet to come.

The Publication Record
Citing their research properly.
Fifty-four published works are recorded here — twenty for Dr. Ragini, thirty-four for Dr. Vijay — covering journal papers, conference proceedings, books and invited lectures.
Open Academic Archive, choose Journals & Publications, then Expand Publication Table.
If you need to cite this work
Every row has a Cite button offering three forms:
- Reference — a finished sentence to paste anywhere.
- BibTeX — for LaTeX and most reference managers.
- RIS — for Zotero, Mendeley and EndNote.
Beneath each table, two buttons download that parent’s entire record as a single file you can import in one step.
Being found by search
The record is also published in a form search engines and academic indexes can read, so a researcher looking for work on graphite beneficiation or the Delhi Iron Pillar can arrive here directly.
Leaving a Tribute
How to add your own memory.
Use Add Memories and Media. Say who your tribute is for, choose the kind of message, write it, and attach a document, photograph, recording or video if you wish.
Nothing appears immediately. Every submission waits for approval before anyone else can see it.
Once approved, your tribute takes its place in the Guest Book for everyone to read.
Photographs & Reading Comfort
How the gallery works, and accessibility.
The gallery shows one photograph at a time. Choose a collection — All, Family, Academic or Service — and it opens in a gold frame.
- The arrows either side move between photographs.
- Left to itself it moves on after about nineteen seconds, so it never sits on one picture.
- Arrow keys work too, and Escape closes it.
If movement or small text is difficult
If your device is set to reduce motion, the site respects it: the mandalas stop drifting, the diya stops flickering and everything appears without animation. The flame itself always stays lit.
The site is designed to be read at whatever size you prefer — text scales with your browser’s zoom without breaking the layout.
