Patna, November 13. The staff of the Asian Development Research Institute (ADRI) held a condolence meeting to pay homage to Dr. Soumya Manjunath on her passing away on November 8, 2024 in a tragic accident at a young age of only 37.

Even after leaving ADRI, she continued to maintain a lively and extensive relationship with her old colleagues at ADRI till her death. Many old colleagues of her narrated their fond memories of working with her and highlighted her kind and friendly manner towards one and all. ADRI will miss her enormously. We stand with her family in this moment of grief and pray to the Almighty to give strength to the members of her bereaved family to bear this irreparable loss. May her soul rest in peace.
