Respected principal,

Greetings!

I saw last week’s Kumudam.

I read the article about Sangam India, your students’ service organization in Kumudam.

It touched my heart when I find that your students are performing social service by starting Sangam India with feelings to serve humanity during their learning years.

The mission of their organization is similar to ours and it makes me very happy.

My admiration and greetings to you, principal of this college and fellow professors for rendering cooperation and to the hearts of over three thousand students who are participating in this organization.

Dear students, though you are in the midst of those who have studied medicine but use it as trade, and you are still studying medicine, let your efforts to serve humanity succeed.

Thank you!

Best Wishes,
Pa. Vijay

We would like to thank Pa. Vijay for taking the time to write to our college. It was very exciting to receive such hearty congratulations from somebody so accomplished!
