A place to reconnect
“Old friends, sat on their park bench like bookends
Can you imagine us years from today?
Sharing a park bench quietly”
-- Paul Simon

conversations, relive old memories and now that we have arrived, lend a hand in

that promotes interaction between the alumni and faculty of various IITs, as
