Extraordinarily resilient, an innovative teacher, and always ready with a smile – that’s how students and colleagues remember Deogaonkar who died of COVID-19 on May 19. He was 56. Deogaonkar had been diagnosed with metastatic lung cancer in July 2020. Within eight months over 2020-’21, he was hospitalised twice for critical lung treatment -- once in November and again in March after testing positive for COVID-19. The virus which primarily attacks the lungs exacerbated the lung damage.
