TRIBUTE TO BELOVED PRINCIPAL COL ONEL KK SUNNY

When a goldfinch enters the thickness of

the laburnum, it fills the tree with life, with
joy and love. The tree is lifeless without the
bird. In the end the tree grieves as the
goldfinch leaves it and goes away. Who on earth
would want such a thing almo st like an end to
happen? No one, but still it happens and everyone
moans. But the tree thanks the bird heartily , for
it has at least shown what the life is and then
bids farewell to the bird.

beautiful and magnificent gardens all around campus. Be it in

All these have changed the environment of the campus.

All these improvements are due to his non -compromising

determination, hard work and urge of our principal to improve. He
is always enthusiastic and cheerful. There is a drastic
improvement in discipline of cadets in school with each and every
cadet being personally checked by him. One cannot afford to be
undisciplined but can only go on improving upon day by day .

If any cadet today can boast of his personality or flaunt

those bright
canvas shoes or
any anything
regarding
turnout, it is
because of this
wonderful person.
There isn’t a
single day when

to cadets. He has
always come to
mess and barracks
to see and know
personally if
there were any problems regarding food or our stay in school. He
visited our barracks and classrooms almost everyday and ensured
cleanliness and good health around us. This has improved the
quality of life we live. Even the air we are breathing is
purified by the saplings planted by him.
You have car ved a special place for yourself in our heart . We
remember you as an honest , hardworking and kind gentleman who has
come in our lives and transformed us all. After his arrival every
one of us felt a kind of the love in the air of campus. The
purest form of it is in our campus. His infinite love towards us
has made us discover our talents and we began to give the best of
ourselves. It’s really very melancholic for us to know tha t we
will be missing all those lively and humorous questions .The
harsh side of reality has dawned. The waves of sadness have
entered our heart.
