18.IASE… Always with you


Many braving the inclement weather turned up in college on Independence Day, Wednesday, 15th August in a spirit of true patriotism. But since the previous day,  Thrichur  had been  receiving a rainfall of the kind never  before seen in living memory and many low lying areas in Thrissur were  flooded with water levels rising to over three metres…So, by the time  the  District Collector declared a holiday on 16 August,  and the University of Calicut preponed Onam vacation  from Monday, 20 August to  Friday, 17 August, many National Highways   and bridges  were  submerged in water  and   buses stopped plying. Those  students staying in  hostels were   safe  but  their own homes  miles away were   affected by dangerously  rising  water levels…

By Saturday, 18th morning,  almost everyone  who had stayed  back  in  the college hostel had vacated….

We, the Staff and Students of IASE,   pray for the  safety and welfare of  those  affected by the  deluge….Please feel free to  contact  us if in need of any help…
