This year we endeavor to add new dimensions:
* Our Alumni Annual Dinner raises some funds too, for a befitting cause:The Loomba Memorial Trust. Launched in London in 1998 in the presence of the British Prime Minister Tony Blair and in India in 1999, the Loomba Memorial Trust aims to provide education for the children of poor widows in India, irrespective of religion, caste and gender.
* DIPSITES are doing breathtaking work on many fronts- and instituting a "DIPSITE of The Year Award" is not out of place. Starting from this year we will have categories of Nation Building, Public Service, Wellness & Education, Entrepreneurship, Business person, Entertainment& Creativity- and such like.
This 27th December guarantees loads of excitement with exciting prizes to be won- holiday breaks and weekends at exotic locations, candlelight dinners at fine restaurants, great apparel and personal jewelry......
