00:00Thank you very much.
00:30Music
00:58We have all come here today for this important occasion.
01:05Friends, I really feel proud, pleased to be here.
01:14I miss all of you here today as we gather to honour and celebrate the life and contribution
01:25of a remarkable figure in the world of statistics, Prof. C.R. Rao Garg.
01:34As we reflect on his legacy, it becomes clearer to us that his impact on the discipline which
01:45he dedicated his life extends far beyond the narrow boundaries of textbooks and research papers.
01:57Prof. Rao Garu's long and illustrious career as a statistician was characterized not only
02:08by the depth and academic vigor, but also by its clarity and extraordinary strength.
02:22As we all know that statistics helps people in making informed decisions,
02:29maybe to plan budgets, travel, best prices.
02:33It actually helps to study relationships between different characteristics,
02:38phenomenons and variables of the aggregate people.
02:42It is the set of equations that allow us to solve complex problems.
02:48Sir Ronald I. M. O. Fisher, known as the father of the modern science of statistics,
02:55we have to remember him today as we are remembering the father of Indian statistics.
