Today, 18 March 2008, is the day officers belonging to the 'silver jubilee' (SS-25) course from OTS, Madras, like me complete 30 years of service (civil and military combined). Earlier on during my service I used to joke about having "thirty" years of experience (the line was taken from a popular comedy serial !) at the drop of a hat. Well, it has become a reality now. How time flies !! Our course has been well represented in RBI too as the following list will demonstrate :
1. Capt Sharad Kumar Sharma, DGM (P&S), Secy's Dept, CO, Mumbai
2. Capt Tapan Kumar Chakravorty, Mgr, (switched over to general side), RBI, Guwahati
3. Capt B.S.Jaswal, Mgr (P&S), RBI, Chandigarh
4. Maj Rajiv Kumar, Mgr (P&S), RBI, Chennai
5. Maj Devinder Sharma, Mgr (P&S), RBI, Ahmedabad
6. Capt Sudershan Kumar, Mgr (P&S), RBI, New Delhi
7. Capt Rajaram Palaniappan, Mgr (P&S), RBI, Chennai
Our course has it's own website thanks to the efforts of stalwarts like Rajeev Saxena - http://ots25.com/ They have been organizing get-togethers and annual meets quite often. I have posted this as a link also on the right side bar of the blog page. The website can be accessed by clicking on the link.
Well, I think it is time to celebrate. There are a few of my coursemates here at Bangalore and we are planning to beat it up at the RSI. Cheers to 'SS25ians' !!
