BITSians Day ‘13 Some quotes



Some quotes..Some quotes..

“ As I walk towards Starbucks at Powai, the venue for celebrating BITSianDay, an ebb of emotions engulf

me. The friends I have made, the amazing experiences that transformed me, and the decade of being identified as a BITSian, bring in an involuntary

smile! Celebrating # BITSiansDay”. Proud to be BITSian

Jagan Yegireddi,2003A1PS483.




“I hear BITSians speak of their days at BITS, and how they miss those days and BITS, but the truth is we're

never far away from BITS, we all have a part of us that's BITS and it's gonna be a part of us till death and after that. So I raise a glass to the never dying

BITSian spirit that makes us who we are. I'm a BITSian and I'm proud of it. Happy BITSians day.”

R.K Vaish




“Suddenly realised I have good number of "BITSian" friends. Some

kind of publicity it is. #BITS #RollNos.”

Hanumanthu Laxmi Sagar NIT Warangal Alumni on the BITSians taking over Social Media on August 2nd.



"Whenever a BITSian does something, he/she does with a

difference and that’s what makes us, the teachers at BITS proud of

you. BITsians Day is the most wonderful idea to connect with

BITSians all over the globe”

Prof. K. E Raman, Chairman, BITS Pilani Alumni Affairs.
