Collection Details -
I have been able to collect $480.00 . The checks have been mailed out to Deb Sir via
Global priority Mail. I am not providing the individual amounts for obvious reasons. Here
is the list of contributors -
Aftab Ahmed (1991)
Abhijit Sarkar(1992)
Amitava Ray (1991)
John Belanger (My Colleague & friend)
Michael Fisher (My colleague)
We (Aftab, Abhijit & myself) have suggested that this money be used towards completing
the computer room. I understand many of us in the North American region have not been able
to contribute for different reasons. Those who have sent money to Bidhan directly - Thanks
a bunch again. Thanks to all of you for your support!

I am overwhelmed to see the Web page on Bidhan; thanks to Amitava Roy. This brings our hearts together for the institute, which gave us the first glimpse to the High School studies. My regards to my teachers, especially to Deb Sir, who is now the Principal. I still remember his "patented" way of doing Maths. Along with Mrs. Champa Dutta (CD), I remember Prof.Ajitdhan Ghosh (ADG). Those days were so nice, which encourages me to keep in touch with the old "goodies": Joydeep Dutta, Rajat Subhra Choudhury and so on. Wish all Bidhanians a prosperous life.

I am an Ex-Bidhanian(1994) batch.The result of our batch is supposedly unsurpassed in the history of Bidhan. I am really proud to be associated with the history of this institution.Unfortunately during our time "Chitralaya" was not in operation.But we did enjoy a lot in Kumarmangalam Park.Deb Sir & Jiban Sir(JB)will remember me any time as I was closely associated with both of them.By best wishes to all past,present & future Bidhanians.

Take care folks.. Joydeep ( 1986 )

I miss those days in Bidhan so much. Attending classes, studying hard for JEE, saraswati puja, beautiful girls, their shyness, our fun, our teachers, the love that our teachers had for us, my respect for people like Deb Sir, Jibon Sir etc. Sitting in USA now, I think in disbelief, have really 10 years passed by?? sounds so unbelievable. Then suddenly the truth comes to the front telling me, my friend yes it has indeed been a long. Some special people in that institution will never be forgotten throughout my life. Sastry

It was VVS ( mouli ) from whom I came to know about this site... No need to mention what a great job Amitava has done. Heartiest thanks to him. The nicest part was to sail thru the comments of the Bidhanians right from 76 till date. that's great !!!. It has been 10 years passed by and sitting almost at the middle of Europe, touching all the amazing places of my childhood wishes, be the sunset at Venice, standing in front of the Vatican city, eating the Viking foods.... but right after Durgapuja the passing thought of Bidhan makes me the most nostalgic. And top of it im Bengali ;).... Saraswati pujor khichuri hok, naito david hare-er cheleder sathe jhamela ba Jiban sarer statistic class.... Soumen, Samrat, Koushik, VVS ..amra sabai mile je 'masti'r time Bidhane katiyechi ta kakhonoi bhulte parbo na. Sbkichu mane pare .. Wish my dearest Bidhan Institute a great and prosperous time and all the juniors the very best for their upcoming future.

I grew up in Durgapur, went to Bidhan and moved on with my life. I have gone back to Durgapur every couple of years for the past 12 years, but I had never gone back inside the school boundary wall since 1985 to see how things might have changed. It feels good to know that some one has gone ahead and put together a website. This definitely got me motivated to go and visit Bidhan on my next trip to Durgapur. Debashis Satpathi Graduated: 1985

Great going guys!!! Keep it up!!! Let us make the stuff a sophisticated one, where we can have some batchwise (year)details, common group, latest event at bidhan and something thru which we can help our juniors in their career goals. Let it be a site for ex Bidhanians to interact and get in touch with each other. It surely has a great potential. So guys put yr thought process and ideas and subsequently we can do something. I hope not going to class is still a craze at Bidhan. I am sure Minu Bus wala dont accept 50 paise for students. Getting into a crowded bus with more gals is still wanted, I guess. Going to Jhumur by skipping classes is still a heroic job. Passing time in KMP before going for tution at Recol Park is prevalent. Last time when I went there I observed that broken wall behind the bus stand. I think that broken stuff should be preserved 'as it is'. Anyway, keep it up buddies, wish you all a happy and successful New Year Y2K3, Take care, Lots of love to all associated to Bidhan and Durgapur Saikat Mukherjee 1994 Bidhan batch (the great batch when Kaushik stood 2nd, record number of guys got above 800, star, first divn) (presently doing MBA in GA, US of A)

Great Job Amitva, Bidhan brings back some very pleasant memories. Deb sir seems to be in good health. I have a lot of respect for him. I grew up in Durgapur , but stay in North America and do not get to visit Durgapur since my parents are settled in Pune. Does Durgapur have a good Air connection from Bombay or Pune. I would like to visit Duragapur . I went to Bidhan and to St.Xaviers and those were some of the best years of my life. Amitava Great job again and Deb Sir Wish you all the Best. If we could have some more photographs of Bidhan it would be great. Sanjiv Sanjivdiwakar@hotmail.com Batch of 1986

But if the pending projects are still pending, I do want to contribute some drops to the sea. With love, (1994 pass-out batch) Koushik.

bidhan was once a great institute just go inside the compund and see its degenration right now. poeple drink and take drugs right inside the compound. there is also allegedly a pimp operating within the compound. you pay as low as 150 rupees and get pleasures! thats what he claims. and all this has come about with the tacit help of few of the faculty members there who inspite of knowing all this turn a blind eye and deaf ear to all these complaints. bidhan which in my days used to boast of HS toppers is now a rotting place. i am sorry to say this. when i introduced myself as an ex-student students from present batch said "to ekhane ki korte esechen, bouke fele gechilen ekhon korate esehen naki! kete porun dada" i was shocked to hear all this! never again will i go back there!

Hi All As far as I'm concerned, Bidhan's greatness lay in the fact that it took as little care of its students as possible. This attracted the Toppers(good students, professionals call them what you want) who could stay home and study (going to Recoll park included)and the Bottomers(If I may call them so), who could indulge in all they wanted to. It also had students like me who did not fit into either of the above mentioned categories, students who were dependent on the classrooms,perhaps foolishly so.During my days, and I go back a long way, mediocrity was crime and I was as mediocre as they come. Bidhan can bask only reflected glory,reflected by its illustrious alumni, in whose success, Bidhan had a small insignificant part to play. With success comes magnanimity, and I excuse my successful friends, seniors and juniors alike for being so generous in dishing out all the undeserving praise being lavished on the undeserving Institution. I passed out in 1995 and it has taken me the major part of a decade to undo all the wrongs Bidhan did to me during the fateful two years. Today I work as an engineer in the IT industry, in a multinational you have all heard of, and perceived by our social standards as quite successful( I give a damn !!), but Bidhan I am sorry to say, has had absolutely no part to play. We all listen to the success stories coming out of Bidhan, but we never hear the ones go badly wrong and plummet into the depths of failure and despair. I was lucky I managed to find a way back, Some less fortunate guys( and beleive me, they were just like the rest of us) did not.

Googling "Bidhan Chandra Institution" and back to the memory lane. Its already a decade I left Bidhan. Till now whenever I visit Durgapur to meet my parents I never miss a single opportunity to have at least a quick trip from Chitralaya to Bidhan on my red enfield :-) Most of my batch mates don't know my name but the bike. Amitava, can you put something like alumni register where any Bidhanian can drop his/her contact information and get contact information of others...

Well it is almost after a year I am going thru this site. Well I appretiate Amitava once again. But I am afraid I donot see much improvement except someone using the site to abuse others - which offcourse donot speak volume for themselvs. As have been suggested by many of the ex-bidhanians : could we have link for alumni in the site? I also wellcome bidhanians residing at Mumbai to feel free and get in touch with me so that we may start a Mumbai chapter here. Amit - 1986 batch (Bidhan)

Dear Amitava, The world would not appreciate something that's meant for a purpose...neither would people preserve what is beautiful. I am sorry to see the profusion of profanaties on the website...and am wondering is this what education is all about. I guess they are all literates and have miles to go before they discover what education is. Frustration is writ large in their invectives - wish them all the luck in showering their choicest words...well thats your education guys! Keep it up. Aniruddha Bhattacharya 1991 Batch
