Professional Practice & DevelopmentNotă biografică
Dr. Ajoy. K. Bose was born on 25th June 1949 at Allahabad, UP, India. He obtained Masters of Science in Physical Chemistry in 1970 and Doctorate in Chemistry for his thesis "Kinetics and Mechanism of Oxidation by Chloramine-T" in 1974 from Allahabad University, Allahabad U.P. (India) and published 13 scientific papers in International Journals. He got associated with explosives and ammunition Industry in 1975 under Ministry of Defence Production, Government of India by joining as Assistant Manager (Probation) under Directorate General, Indian 0rdnance Factories.
The author had the privilege to work in ammunition and explosive industry for over 34 years (including 8 years exclusively in pyrotechnic ammunition industry) during which he was involved with production, Quality control and research and development of various ammunitions. He was deeply involved in solving a large number of teething technical problems in ammunition manufacture and product improvement through innovations in processes and materials over the years. During his career, author has worked in various ammunition, explosive and propellant factories in India. During these years, the author had close interactions with various ammunition and explosive factories, inspectorates and controllerates of quality assurance (for army, navy, air force and para military force) and military explosives as well as various proof establishments and defence research and development organisation.
The author is recipient of prestigious awards like "Ayudh Bhushan" for his outstanding services in solving technical problems in production and product improvements. The author was involved with design of igniter and Ordnance Factory Dehuroad received citation "Raksha Mantri award for Excellence 2007-08 for Design Efforts" - for Design of Igniter under Ministry of Defence (Production) and cash award by India’s Defence Minister in 2009. The author received citation and cash award from DGOF and Chairman/OFB for design of above igniter.
The factory during his tenure as General Manager (HAG) received the "Raksha Mantri Award for Excellence 2008-09 for Best Performing Factory of OFB" from Ministry of Defence production. He contributed significantly for the factory in achieving again the "Raksha Mantri Award for Excellence 2009-10 for Best Performing Factory of OFB" during his part tenure prior to retirement.
He retired from service as General Manager (HAG) of one of the Asia’s biggest pyrotechnic factory at Pune in India.
