Annual Report 2017-'18
1 s SURANA COLLEGE #16, South End Road, Bengaluru-04 ANNUAL REPORT 2017-‘18 Dr.Archana Surana, Managing Trustee’s message to Teachers on Teachers’ Day Celebration In 1985 Reliance conducted its first annual general meeting in Colaba Football Ground, Mumbai. A few years later, it was at Cross Maidan, Mumbai. Today, there is no stadium which can hold its shareholders during its annual meetings. Similarly when this Teachers’ day episodes started a few years ago, it used to be at the UG board room, later we moved to the seminar hall and here we are today at the PG Centre auditorium. You know what I mean. We are growing: in size and in terms of a large family. I am glad to see people from all the 4 campuses. But what worries me is, with increase in size comes increasing problems. Size is not the issue, but families are. Huge personal families were not a problem in those days. You do not trust me, talk to your grandparents. Getting used to noise, no personal time for couples, small cars and lap sittings, long ques outside restrooms etc. It was a heaven then. Today huge families, right from the beginning, face forces that could pull them apart. The love of a family is life’s greatest blessing. Work families are no exception to this fact. I am not sure how many of you present here have enjoyed this feeling being part of this large family at Surana. If you have, then you have understood the secret that a family at workplace is not an important thing, it is everything.
