Atomic Energy Central School - 3 (TIFR)

                 After a long long time recently I went back to my alma mater AECS-III also called TIFR as there were 2 other branches. Located in woods behind ECIL near ECIL cross roads. A melange of emotions run through my heart just to see the state in which the building was. I never would have even dreamt of seeing this great institution in such a state. Once bustling with hundreds of students in the morning and afternoon batches with long prayers, four different groups of students identified by their flaps (green, yellow, red, blue) practicing sports, dance, rangoli, quiz for competitions during weekend spelled Saturday then. Now Deserted, Wild, Locked up from outside world and almost rotting! A few years back they closed our school combining students from other branches into one place. Ofcourse only a handful of students now, with the emergence of many private, so called competition oriented concept schools that have IIT, EAMCET, AIEEE coaching integrated, differentiated what not!! They have all things for the future exams but unfortunately they dont have anything for the present school life like a play ground, sports, cultural activities. How sad. 

              6th class was my most favorite year in school. We used to have a lot of substitution periods as almost every day some lecturer missed their schedule. And most of these were substituted for PT or Library. If ever I had a chance to go back in time, I would definitely go to my 6th class.....
