Celebratory Lunch with Faculty, Spouses, and Friends

A Special Lunch Celebration at City Heights Bistro

After our time on campus, we boarded the traveler bus once more, heading to City Heights Bistro, just a short 3.3 km from the MREC campus, for a memorable lunch gathering. Faculty, staff, batchmates, and even some spouses joined us in the bistro’s banquet hall, creating a lively atmosphere that was filled with familiar faces and warm camaraderie.

As a tribute to our batch unity, all 17 of us stood in a row holding placards that read: “Class – of – 1994 – 1999 – Department – of – Architecture – MREC – Jaipur – 25 – Year – Batch – Reunion – Let’s – Connect – Again – Together.” This gesture brought a smile to everyone’s faces, symbolizing our collective pride in our alma mater and lasting connections.

In a heartfelt moment, we then invited each faculty member to join us, presenting them with mementos and a shawl as a token of our appreciation. The welcoming began with HOD Rajeev Shringi Sir, honored by Ravi Rai, followed by Kalpna Pandit Ma’am, welcomed by me, Rina Surana Ma’am by Naveen Hiramath, Tarus Chandra Sir by Naveen K, Meenu Varshney Ma’am by Sheetal Agarwal, and Ashok Pareek Sir by Pramod Gupta, continuing on to honor each esteemed faculty member who had guided us.

After the welcomes and speeches, we all shared a delicious meal, enjoying the chance to connect with each other and with our mentors in an atmosphere of shared respect and joy.
