Administrators , Campus Buildings , Faculty

While other photographs in the album make it difficult to determine the venue, this photograph captures the name of the hostel in the background, thereby confirming that the camp was held at Narmada Hostel. The NCC camp took place for 14 days in December, ending on New Years Day. The event is documented in the form of a humorous article published in the Annual Number of IIT Madras, 1965. The article is written by Vijay G. and is titled ‘Red Letter Days’.

Seen in the photograph are, Prof. R. K. Gupta (Humanities Department, extreme left, partially covered), Prof. S. Sampath (Head of Electrical Engineering Department and Warden of Narmada Hostel, third from left), Prof. B. Sengupto (Director of IIT Madras, fifth from left) and Mr. C. V. Sethunathan (Registrar, eighth from left).
