JAMMU, Apr 21: An impressive and colourful alumni meet was organized by the GGM Science College, erstwhile Prince of Wales College Jammu, on the college campus, here last evening.
A large number of old students participated in the alumni meet for which illumination of the old arch and college building was made reminding the grandeur and the pristine glory of this oldest institution of the State.
A number of old students, both serving and retired officers, attended the meet. They were quite thrilled to visit their old classrooms, labs and ‘nooks and corners’ where they used to play mischief during their student days.
Earlier, the Principal of the heritage college Dr Nutan K Resutra extended a warm welcome to those former students. He called upon the alumni to form a body that would guide the college administration in not only taking up the developmental works but also maintaining the heritage character and glory of this prestigious college. He also said that the college administration was initiating steps to erect a heritage gate as also providing an alumni venue where the alumni would be able to plant their trees as a contribution to their alma mater and the environment.
A colourful cultural programme wherein different artists presented Gujrati and Rajasthani dances, was also held. The jawans from the Army units staged a bhangra in which alumni and their families also danced. Some volunteers displayed the Sikh martial art Gatka, making it a memorable evening.
