Administrators , Campus Buildings , Faculty

The NCC camp was held in December at Narmada Hostel. This photograph appears to have been taken in the hostel zone although we cannot determine if it was specifically in Narmada Hostel. It was a big year for NCC, with the opening of the new NCC building to house the various NCC units on 14 December 1965.

Prof. S. Sampath (Head of Department of Electrical Engineering Department and Warden of Narmada House) is seen to the extreme left. Prof. B. Sengupto was the first Director of IIT Madras. He served his term from 1959 to 1967. A major chunk of the early phase of development of the campus progressed under his leadership.
