4th Foundation Day of IIT Rajasthan

2 August, 2012


Today is "Rakshabandhan" and 4th foundation day of IIT Rajasthan. 4 buses were arranged from institute to the permanent campus cite, we celebrated this day by planting trees at  permanent campus cite of IIT Rajasthan. It was very far from our present campus (around 22 kms) and the journey was tiresome.

Feeling of tree "one who gave me life is not alive but he is still alive in the form of mine". These words inspired me to go there and plant trees. One more reason is,  i was very much willing to see how the work is progressing @ permanent campus cite. How our permanent campus looks like. Although we would not be able to see IIT Rajasthan campus fully functioning there till our completion of degree.

When we reached there,  lot of trees were waiting for us :) Actually we were huge in numbers (UG's,PG's and faculty also) so it took very less time and all the trees been planted within few minutes.
I planted "ARJUNA" (only one :(  ),  i don't know some of them were saying that it is ARJUNA so i got to know ohh okay it is "ARJUNA", a teacher instructed me plant it in that particular row, i did the same.

 I am writing this post because i know i would not be able to see the full fledged building of IIT Rajasthan but still there is my symbol, symbol of my presence here at IIT Rajasthan,  in the form of "ARJUNA".
 
Some of them were having cameras with them, they were taking pictures of the plants and also their pictures with plants,  so that they can post their memorable pic on social networking sites :) :). We use to see those kind of pictures in newspapers when some ministers use to go on plantation drive (jealous with them :( :( :( because i was not having camera with me), and i don't want to say anyone  like "please take picture of mine with this plant i ropped". So mentally I  mapped the location of the plant i roped, if in future i come to permanent campus (just kind of imagination human beings only have) i would be able to recognize the plant.

 Below is something i can understand only and i am writing it because in case i forget i can get hint from here.

Location of the plant i roped:

First Gate NH-64
9 feets away from the road inside the campus.
and also RH-3 mark was a bit left to the tree.       

I pray all the plants roped today live long. I felt what a amazing thing it is. The Plant you are planting live more than you and indicate your presence forever. 

Don't know your son or anyone most beloved to you would be honest and devoted towards you or not but these trees will always there with you in any season and in any situation.

With this,  day Inspired me to plant more no. of trees.
  
Happy Rakshabandhan and Happy IIT Rajasthan foundation day. ....

Cheers ..........
