Sixty years ago, in 1966, we stepped into ‘Bengal Engineering College’ as young students of Civil Engineering - full of dreams, arguments, laughter, and an unspoken promise of lifelong Friendship. None of us knew then that those class-room benches, hostels, site visits, and endless addas would quietly grow into a bond strong enough to last a lifetime.
From 9 am on 20 January 2026 to 11 am on 21 January 2026, we celebrated that journey together with our wives at 'Aquatica Water Park & Resort', New Town, Kolkata.22 Batchmates and 16 Wives Participated.It was more than just a reunion; it was a Diamond Jubilee Celebration of Friendship - 60 years of shared memories, mutual support, and enduring camaraderie. With our life partners by our side, the circle felt complete.
Between conversations that flowed effortlessly, nostalgic recollections of BEC days, warm laughter, music, and moments of quiet reflection, time seemed to fold back on itself.The years may have passed, but the Friendship remains young at heart.
Grateful for the past, joyful in the present, and hopeful for the days ahead - this Celebration reminded us how truly blessed we are to have carried our Friendship, together, across six remarkable decades.
