Message to Students :

After working for almost 38 years, I retired. There are mixed emotions. I don’t miss marking answer sheets or teacher’s meetings. But I miss everything that has to do with my students. Most of you are changed so much physically that I would have difficulty in recognizing you. But I am very much interested in what you are doing and what I am most proud of is that my enthusiasm and passion for work never disappeared. You my dear students were my inspiration and I thank you all. We are so proud to see you in so rewarding career It would be great to see you in future also so that I can hear about all of your outstanding successes. Look for me on Facebook.
