Golden
jubilee Reunion celebrations of 1970
Batch
Punjab
Engineering College Chandigarh 1970--2020
14th
and 15th Feb 2020 Chandigarh
Heart touching mesmerising
experience by one and all
Fifty years nearly half
a century is not a small period .Many of us were not so fortunate to be here as
they lost their journey of life in this period. We humbly pay our tribute to them .
I was in great excitement to meet friends after 50 years and so reached the
venue well in advance on 14th
Feb , Hotel Shivalik View sector 17 Chandigarh. This evening was driven by the
great leadership of our trio Jasbir Chhabra , Teekam Bali, Mahendra Kumar Gupta and well supported by ML
Bansal and team
members. While meeting college friends each moment was full of flash back memories,
KISSE, KAHANIAN and SHUTRIS .
Formal registration
started 6PM and many of us had joined
with their better halves. Obviously difficult to recognise we were give name tags
marked with engineering batch. Meeting hall was was full of JOSH, LOVE, Happiness, Loving emotions
,continuous hugging old friends and many times tears of living happily
were rolling down cheeks and it was a mesmerizing evening.
Dr. Dheeraj Sanghi Director
PEC and Dr. Divya Bansal Dean Alumni Corporate PEC joined as esteemed distinguished guests.
Function started
with musical songs and Tabla performace
By Madan.Some one said today is the
birth day of Dr Divya Bansal and hall was filled with birth day wishes and clappings . I gave my wishes with the birthday song---
Sagar me ek lehhar uthi tre nam ke,
Too he sunder boond des sansar ki-----------
This song made the hall vibrating and she was doubly full of feelings of
happiness on this unique Valentines Day .
Golden
Jubilee Souvenir was launched By Director Sanghi.
Teekaam’s picture gallery was
unique , fantastic and wonderful.
Party was full of songs, dances by better halves , jokes, old stories
and lasted till mid night and then we
all started going to our rooms.
Next day was HOMECOMING CELEBRATIONS AT PEC CAMPUS and Football Stadium was fully decorated to
welcome us. Alumni of other batches had also come to the tune of 600 students.
After registration the day started with the sessions conferring distinguished
Alumni awards. Although both the Dean and the Director themselves are much
junior to alums of 1970 batch going back to 1956 batch and aka Bikram Singh Grewal of 1943
batch from PEC Lahore aging 97 years was a great hallmark . He turned out to be
a true academic leader for each one visiting the Aluma just as a student even
in the octogenarian years of life.
Batch
wise Memento distiribution was at five
different venues to save time and giving
more time of interaction within batch mates.
To keep busy students had arranged
games, cricket tournament, kite flying , musical chair and E Rickshaws
to take us around the campus. A great super
lunch was in the stadium. City tour by busses kept us
busy the whole afternoon.
1970 batch had special invitation
of evening snacks at Director residence.
Afterwards we were entertained by students with fabulous , vibrating
musical night with 20 minutes nonstop bhangra, old songs, and lot many dances
by alumni’s . Bhangra team of young students filled everyone with joy and fun
and the whole performance left deep
memories in each heart
In individual performance Mouth
organ by Brig Harbir Singh PEC Mate 1973 was lovingly wonderful. Individual Bhangra by MK Nanda impressed all.
On the request of Grewal Sahib Tejinder Singh Bedi presented KL Sehgal song—
Gham Diye Mustiqil,
Kitna Nazuk Hai DIl , Hai Dil------
In the end I must state our group
leaders of 1970 batch made this event colourful. PEC under the exemplary
leadership of DR. Dheeraj Sanghi supported well by Dr. Divya Basal and teams
has shown the way to new horizon in
integrating Alumni for further growth and restoration of lost glory and brand
positioning. I also take this opportunity to wish all alums a more deeper
interactions and stronger bonding ahead.
I express my great gratitude to PEC and grand team of students volunteers who made this event really fabulous and memorable.
I cherished visit to my temple of studies after five decades.
Alvida
Great love to all. Sab ka Mangal Ho----
