IIMK turns 11!

IIMK celebrated its completion of eleven years of excellence by organising a host of events on 21st August . The evening began with a performance of “puli kali” (roughly translated into "tiger dance"), a local art form. The audience – comprising of the faculty and the staff, their families, and the students looked thrilled as the artists performed daring feats. After the event, Prof. Rameshan promised to conduct the same event at a much larger scale. He added that many more artists will be invited to perform various other local art forms.


The function moved on to the auditorium where Prof. R.P.Suresh, one of the senior most faculties, gave a small speech as he took a trip down the memory lane. He spoke about how much progress we’ve achieved in these 11 years and expressed hope at continuing at the same fervent pace. After that Dr Krishna Kumar, the director, addressed the audience, speaking about the importance of celebrating the foundation day, and maintaining our distinctness as we continue to grow in size. This speech, peppered with anecdotes, was followed by a function where the administrative officers were felicitated.

The evening ended on a high note with an excellent performance by the orchestra.
