Meeting with classmates from Kendriya Vidyalaya, IIT Madras, batch of 1975.
Many people told me that the campus has changed quite a bit since the time I live there because of all the new buildings, but the parts I visited were as peaceful as ever. One could walk beside the roads under the shade of the massive trees without fear of being of being run over by a vehicle. People seemed to be incredibly relaxed on the streets. It was just great!

Fabulous pictures. Especially the wildlife. What about the shopping center near your house? And dad's lab in HSB? The gorgeous banyan tree directly in front of HSB main entrance? These pictures are great. Looking forward to more.
