Well, for me & people who know the truth, today's the day when one should remember Jadunath Sinha, a well-respected philosopher, writer & religious seeker, a student whose thesis was stolen by his teacher, Dr. Sarvapalli Radhakrishnan.
Happy Teacher's Day, Prof. J. Sinha 🙂. +
Jadunath Sinha bagged Philip Samuel Smith Prize & Clint Memorial Prize after passing B.A. (Honours in Philosophy) (1915), Griffith Prize (1923), Mouat Medal of the CU (1925) after passing M.A. ++
Calcutta University had appointed Brajendranath Seal and Dr. Radhakrishnan as examiners of the parts of thesis that were submitted by Jadunath Sinha. According to Prof. Jadunath Sinha, though Radhakrishnan's book Indian Philosophy Vol. II, which incorporated the ++
extensively stolen paragraphs of Jadunath Sinha's thesis (Vol.I and II), was published in 1927, he had noticed the copyright infringement (plagiarism) only in November 1928.
Prof. Jadunath Sinha lodged a serious complaint in the Modern Review (M.R.) magazine through a letter dated December 20, 1928, which was published in the M.R. issue of January 1929.
