 A few batch mates attended 108th anniversary of our beloved Dr
Alagappa Chettiar day on 06 April 2017 at ACCET

During that day, they made a visit to KNH to recollect their past
memories.

KNH is now given for Girls students. Girls shared their hostel life
and mentioned that their wash areas are bad apart from cramped
stay in room .
 On visiting KNH wash areas, the team took a decision to steer
through renovation work of Toilets and bath rooms on war
path during the students vacation period of about 30 days in
June 2017.

Pooja done for renovation on 01 June 2017 and completed on

28th June 2017

Some clippings follow on old and current look of KNH wash
