Cultural Week at IISc-'Swagatham-2011' for freshers

Today we were given an informal welcome by the Students' Council of the Indian Institute of Science-which is an active organisation of the students, for the students and by the students of IISc, for almost 50 years as of now, at the famous JN Tata Auditorium in front of the main gate of IISc.
The another great thing about this institute, apart from the unmatched scientific ingenuity of the people here is the fact that we have a strong network of student representatives who are  always ready to solve problems and add life and vitality to the campus and its infinitude of events which are mostly due to their efforts only.
The programme, commencing with some refreshments, consisted of a multitude of brilliant performances by various cultural groups at IISc. The contribution on behalf of undergraduate students was a wonderful effort by Abhinav(on the guitar) and Shashank(on the microphone) who prepared their item at an extremely short notice. The programme consisted of classical and western dance performances, which included hip-hop, Kuchipudi and Bharatnatyam in particular. The programme also included a stellar performance by 'Rangmanch'-the dramatics club of IISc. However, the show-stealer was the captivating performance 'Jugalbandi' by the musical wizards of the institute. I need not stress upon the fact that we were once again addressed by the distinguished dignitaries at IISc quite similar to yesterday's welcome. In all, it was really an enchanting programme which touched one and all present at the auditorium.
Best wishes to all the readers......
