My New Year Greetings to one and

all!

It gives me great happiness to meet

you all through this newsletter.

The success journey of our institution

continues with the passage of time.

Aptly, our institution has been

conferred with two best notable

awards during this period. As you are all aware, our

institution has been continuously winning the prestigious

AICTE‐CII Best Industry Linked Technical Institute Awards

from 2014 with 8 awards in 5 years. It is a great feat that

this year our institution has been conferred with the AICTE‐

CII Mentor Award for a period of three years and it owes the

pride that ours is the one and only institution to be chosen

as the Mentor among all the other Polytechnics in the

nation.

Adding feather to our cap is the AICTE Clean and Smart

Campus Award bestowed on our institution during Dec

2019, which stands as testimony to the cleanliness and

smart facilities adopted in our institution. I am happy to

mention here that our students have also proved their

mettle by winning the First place with Rs.50,000/‐ cash

prize for their e‐bike project exclusively designed by them in

International Level India's First New, Clean & Intelligent

Mobility Mission Festival 2019‐2020. I express my heartfelt

congratulations to each and everyone for making such

achievements every time.

With these awards and accolades adorning our crown, I

strongly believe that this campus is a Sacred Bhoomi with

all blessings of the Lord. Rightly, I am very delighted to state

that the Divine Sri Srinivasa Thirukalyanam, organized by

Sona Group of Institutions and Sri Srinivasa Thirukalyana

Committee, Salem will be held in our ground on 09 Feb 2020

in a very grand manner. I invite everyone to take part in the

auspicious occasion and seek the blessings of the Lord

Almighty.

Also, I am greatly pleased to state that the National Level

Technical Symposium ThaigFest 2020 will be conducted in a

grand manner in our institution on 07 Feb 2020. We expect

a large gathering of polytechnic students across the nation

to participate in this event. I invite all my dear students to

utilize this opportunity and take part in the symposium and

make it a grand success.

It gives me immense happiness to note that our institution

has grabbed the Overall Championship in the IPAA

Divisional Girls Sports events for the 12th consecutively

year. I congratulate Dr.D.Soundarraj, Physical Director and

all the girl students for this wonderful achievement and

wish them good luck in the ensuing events.

As we proceed with awards and achievements, we have a

series of functions like Annual Day and Sports Day during

this semester. I invite everyone to take part in the

celebrations and make all our endeavours fruitful. At the

same time, my dear students, do concentrate in academics

as well and perform well in the ensuing April Autonomous

examinations.

Once again I wish you all a very happy and prosperous New

Year 2020.
