Abstract

It has been a long standing desire to include a separate section bearing a title, "Technical Brief", or some other suitable name, within the Indian Welding Journal. However, the Editorial Team of the Indian Welding Journal could not gather enough input to start this section effectively. After a long wait, the Honorary Secretary General, Mr. Parimal Biswas, could identify Mr. S. K. Gupta, a person having long standing experience in welding and fabrication sector of industry, to obtain some write up that can be included in the respective section, named, "Tit Bit in Welding" of the Journal. Therefore, from this October 2015 issue of the Journal, this section is being started with a write up obtained from Mr. Gupta bearing the title, "An Approach to Best Welding Practice". I as the Joint Editor wish to give sincere thanks to Mr. Gupta to enable us to start this section.
