General Note:
Ram Das Gupta established the Vrindaban Research Institute [VRI) in the upper floors of a pilgrim hostel owned by his family in 1968. The VRI was dedicated to the task of collecting, cataloguing and conserving some of the manuscripts that were mouldering away in their thousands in temple storerooms all across the town. Dr Gupta recruited a small team of local scholars and enabled a number of young people to acquire the skills of manuscript conservation.
