Prof. P. Srinivasa Rao (Dean of Students) was from the Mechanical Engineering Department. Here, he is seen addressing the audience at the 30th Inter-IIT Sports Meet. It was held at IIT Madras.

The other gentleman in the picture is yet to be identified.
As per the 1994 Annual Report of IIT Madras, the initial two days of the event proceeded smoothly. Unfortunately, heavy rains impeded outdoor activities from taking place. Nonetheless, indoor games like basketball, volleyball, table tennis, badminton, and weightlifting continued as planned at the Student Activities Centre and the old badminton court.
