Monsoons are back... and so are the students... the campus is alive, vibrating with activities... once againLike every year since 2000 - and this was the 10th year - Ratanjee Memorial Trophy happened...
... a (supposedly) sports event... and an amazing way of competing and coming together of the two batches who have known each other for less than a month
here are some pics (generously plagiarised from a postings by Dipti Sharma - Thanks! :0)
But who was Ratanjee? Why this event?
Ratanjee Jha, BTech (Mech), IIT, Guwahati (1995-1999), from Patna, joined in PMIR at XLRI. He had a score of 790/800 in GMAT, but could not go abroad for studies due to financial constraints in the family.At XLRI also, he consistently ranked among the first five. He was known for his sharp reasoning skills and fast learning ability. His scholastic ability was acknowledged by the institute and was conferred upon by the Jubilee Scholarship. He was also a member of Socrates. Sadly, this bright spark got extinguished midway its journey, when Ratanjee met with a fatal accident during his Summer Internship in 2000.
...in XL, everything has a history behind it... we remember and celebrate those who passed through this portal...
Thanks, Ratanjee!.. for being here... and for having left a legacy behind...
