To those of us in Insurance field, this address was too well known -“Felix Tower, Ammayappa Nagar, Vayalur Road, Tiruchi East, Trichy – 620008” – and many in the industry were keenly following the decision of the Madurai Bench of Madras High Court pronounced on 27.2.2019 on a challenge in conduct of survey. 7th Aug 2019 was a sad day – for our friend, Senior surveyor, vociferous champion of surveyor’s cause – Mr RK Elango passed away after fighting illness for sometime. He was 60.
He
was a leading surveyor, championing the cause of surveyor fraternity against Insurers
taking it legal battle at times.More importantly,
he would be remembered as a friendly person, man of knowledge, mentor to many
budding surveyors of the industry, well connected to insurance officials – and –
very passionate of imparting knowledge in the industry.His training programmes would be meticulously
planned, throwing in an array of subject matter experts in the field, conducted
in a conducive atmosphere, making learning a very serious perspective. His study
material and books prepared for the insurance industry would stand a longway,
making people remember him.
He
was always a good host, taking care of people – and to me personally, his
passing away is a great loss.He had
invited me to many seminars for delivering insurance lectures and I have had
many interactions with him on insurance topics which I would savour forever.
me with Elango at Khajuraho
I
offer my deep condolences and pray for strength to his family at this hour of
bereavement.
We remember you Mr RK Elango
!
With
profound regards and regrets on his passing away – S. Sampathkumar
