It may be noted here that such felicitation events had been stopped after Dr Anwaruzzaman left the college in 2016. It is learnt that the former department head used to bear all the expenses for such programmes earlier.

“All the toppers, some of whom are now studying abroad, from the batches of 2015, 16 and 17 were felicitated,” the college official said. Talking to The Statesman, the associate professor of Aliah University, Dr Anwaruzzaman, said, “Such programmes are needed to boost the students’ morale as they vow to do something big in the future.”
