Dhirendra Kishore Chakravarti
Dhirendra Kishore Chakravarti was an Indian geologist and palaentologist, who worked at Banaras Hindu University in the Geological Museum.
In 1934, he was the first Indian to describe a species of dinosaur, Brachypodosaurus gravis. In 1935, he contested the interpretation of Lametasaurus indicus as an armoured dinosaur, arguing that it was a chimera.
In 1982, the Geological Society of India organised a Festschrift in his honour.Publications
