 Biographical / Historical

Krishna Bahadur was a chemist, researcher and Head of the Chemistry department at Allahabad University. Born on 20 January 1926 in Allahabad, he completed his bachelors and masters from the University of Allahabad. For his doctoral studies, he was affiliated with Dr.Neel Ratan Dhar's laboratory, also at University of Allahabad. He obtained his D.I.C from Imperial College, London in 1962 where he conducted work, after being awarded the Nuffield Fellowship. He worked as an exchange scientist at the University of Florida, in Tallahassee in 1963. Along with S Ranganayaki, he set up a group that conducted work across multiple areas of interests like microbiology, origins of life, nitrogen fixation and photocatlytic splitting of water. Through the 1950s and 60s, they developed and investigated the system of protocell-like microspheres dubbed "Jeewanu". His research interests spanned across topics, ranging from work on microbiology, Origins of life, nitrogen fixation and the photocatalytic splitting of water. He was a member of the Royal College of Science, London; life member of the National Academy of Sciences, India, and of the International Society of the Study of Origins of Life(ISSOL).

S. Ranganayaki was a chemist and lecturer based at the University of Allahabad. Born in Bangalore on 16 June 1930, she grew up in South India, obtaining her bachelors and masters from Annamalai University, Tamil Nadu. She was affiliated with Dr. Neel Ratan Dhar's laboratory at the University of Allahabad for her doctoral studies and graduated in 1955. She was awarded a DSc degree in 1961, after which she stayed on in the university as a lecturer. Between 1967 and 1968, she carried out research at Sir George Williams University, Montreal, Canada. Along with her husband, she was involved in research on the Origins of life, leading to a series of publications on protocell-like microspheres that were dubbed "Jeewanu" She also co-authored the book "Origins of Life - A functional approach".

 Immediate Source of Acquisition

Shashi Thutupalli's Active Evolvable Matter Lab at NCBS, Bangalore had been working on questions related to the origins of life. Thuttupalli also looked at previous literature in the area and found a reference to the work on 'Jeewanu' by Krishna Bahadur and S Ranganayaki in a book. That was followed by multiple attempts to trace the history of this work. In 2024, they were well into their own investigation of the system, and Thutupalli delivered a talk at ICTS Bangalore, where he mentioned their ongoing research and the previous work of Krishna Bahadur and S Ranganayaki. Also present at the talk was Deepak Dhar, a physicist and alumnus of the University of Allahabad. Dhar recognized the work.Through a colleague from his time at the University of Allahabad , who knew Chandran Bahadur, he obtained a contact information that he thought belonged to Bahadur's granddaughter and passed it on to Thutupalli. Thutupalli reached out and connected with the family (the contact was actually of Bahadur's daughter, Ila Bahadur).Separately, a few years before this encounter, in 2007, Ila, Mridula and Chandran Bahadur (children of Krishna Bahadur and S Ranganayaki) had made the decision to safekeep important papers relating to their parents' work in Allahabad. Ila Bahadur visited NCBS and the Archives at NCBS a few months after the conversation with Thuttupalli, and decided to donate their parents' papers to the Archives.

 Scope and Contents

The collection is arranged into six series.

Series one is Correspondence and contains a combination of handwritten and typed letters, and drafts. It is divided into six sub-series, with the first five sub-series consisting of letters from 1950 to 1999 arranged decade wise. The last sub-series consists only of undated letters. The letters are often to and from colleagues, and collaborators in India and abroad on a variety of themes including experimental ideas, research interests, reports, and proposals. A portion of the letters are logistical and administrative correspondence regarding travel, accommodation, and others. It also includes letters from friends and family.

Series two consists of administrative documents. This series includes certificates of both Krishna Bahadur and S Ranganayaki, biodatas, appointment orders, thesis reports, grant applications and proposals, and documents related to symposiums like the International Symposium for Study of Origin of Life. Also contained in this series are lists of publications of both Bahadur and Ranganayaki.

Series three, Research Writings and Output, is divided into two sub-series labelled drafts and publications, in that order. Sub-series one mostly contains writing related to work on amino acids, origins of life, and nitrogen fixation. It also consists a thesis report on work done on yeast, and a report of the work conducted at Imperial College, London as a Nuffield Travelling Fellow. Sub-series two consists of publications from the 1950s to the 1980s, and an undated book on the Origin of Life.

Series four, Research Data and References is divided into three sub-series labelled Notes and Notebooks, Research Data, and Research References, in that order. Sub-series one consists of lab notebooks relating to work on yeast, a bound book of papers on chromatography of amino acids and related compounds, and other notes, the bulk of them handwritten on origins of life, Jeewanu, and other experiments. Sub-series two consists of data from various analytical techniques. This sub-series includes microscopy images, Scanning Electron Microscopy images, data from chromatography, spectrophotometry measurements, pressure over time graphs, and data from pH measurements and ascorbic acid experiments. Sub-series three contains research references from the 1960's.

Series five, consisting of non-academic writings, is divided into three sub-series labelled Science Education, Commentary on Jeewanu, and Other Writings, in that order. The bulk of sub-series one consists of handwritten notes in Hindi on topics in organic chemistry. It also contains a write-up on the Origin of Life, and on celestial bodies. Sub-series two consists mostly of material referencing the work on Jeewanu in various capacities — confirmation of the work, refutal of the work, and Bahadur's own response to commentary on his work. Sub-series three consists of writing related to Bahadur's other interests like humanity and civilization, and a copy of a chemistry booklet.

Series six, consists of a variety of personal material ranging from photographs, an obituary for Bahadur written by Ranganayaki, a Kindergarten class report and other ephemera.
