Mr D.H. Thanekar is recorded as an Indian student enrolled in the 1961-62 postgraduate course run by the Architectural Association Department of Tropical Studies. He attended on a ‘lectures only’ basis, meaning that he was not entitled to receive a Certificate in Tropical Studies. A note in the AA Student Register states that from December 1961 Thanekar’s name had been changed to ‘D.H. Nakhana’. Details of his earlier education or subsequent career are not yet known to us.
