Dr KK Aggarwal: A thorough professional & an eminent doctor

The cruel surge of Covid-19 hit all of us at India Legal on May 17, 2021, with the untimely and shocking death of renowned cardiologist Dr KK Aggarwal, our most prolific writer. Besides writing many informative and timely articles on Covid and other pressing medical issues, the eminent doctor also churned out many videos on social media on Covid in an effort to inform and caution people about the fast-mutating virus. Alas, who knew he himself would succumb to it.

My association with Dr Aggarwal began in December 2017 when I asked him if he would be willing to contribute medico-legal stories for our magazine. I was hesitant about a positive reply considering how busy he was. But the answer was prompt and comforting—he said he would love to write for us and didn’t want any payment. And thus began our long and warm association.

Despite the fact that none of us had actually met Dr Aggarwal, his articles on varied subjects, written with elan and clarity, were an integral part of almost every issue of India Legal. Many made it to the cover of the magazine. He was also a regular guest in shows of our sister concern, APN News and in February 2021, even had a free-wheeling video chat with this writer on Covid-19 and journalism. He was a thorough professional and would submit his articles well before the deadline. He was also humble enough to explain medical jargon to India Legal’s editors, and would take suggestions from them to make changes in his article, which he did without a murmur. His passing away has saddened all of us and as a tribute to this eminent doctor and friend, we are publishing some excerpts of his articles.
