KurukSASTRA X

KSX was rocking fun. It was a relief from the monotonous classes and the sweltering heat here. Crazy Mohan’s ‘Chocolate Krishna’ was enjoyed by everyone, with spontaneous humour from the comedian and his troupe. Shankar Mahadevan’s performance was the highlight of the event with people swaying to his songs, teachers and students alike ;) The food stalls were different from usual with Marrybrown and Javagreen being the new ones. For the first time in KS history, we had Telugu Lits this time which turned out to be a huge success. The overall trophy was won by NIT-T. SASTRA’s host performance was stunning and memorable. All in all it was real fun and enjoyable :)

Daksh 2010

Daksh 2010 was a huge success. The turn-out was huge and there was quality participation. Though initially there was some confusion regarding Mr. Swapan Dasgupta’s lecture, things went on smoothly. The Robot dance, Laser show and Astronomy show attracted huge crowds. The food stalls proved to be a relief to the hostellers, especially the girls. Apart from this, there were also some activities done as part of the Daksh Initiatives programme. EcoBrigade volunteers with green ribbons encouraged and advised people to throw waste materials into dustbins. Also Plasma Compendium was focussed upon. Mozilla had a stall put up and overwhelmed with the response, has agreed to be one of the sponsors of Daksh 2011 :) Daksh 2010 also saw our beloved seniors coming back to college and having fun 
With Daksh 2010 turning out to be such a mega event, it’s going to be challenging for us juniors to make sure we keep increasing the standards and making Daksh 2011 a much greater success.
