New Year Wishes & 1st Anniversary of DIET e-Newsletter

At the outset I convey my heartfelt warm wishes for the New Year 2018 to all students, faculty, staff and other stockholders of this campus. Each New Year brings new hopes and aspirations along with new goals and challenges. It is the time to celebrate our accomplishments of 2017 and to look forward for achieving greater heights in 2018.

I am also glad and will like to congratulate team of our DIET e-Newsletter for completing one year of successful publication. Newsletter has not only achieved its goal of sharing campus information but has also become a platform to exhibit and appreciate talents and creative ideas. It has also strengthened our connects with alumni and parents. Though operating in a silent way, the efforts behind publishing the newsletter cannot be understated and certainly deserves appreciation.

Let us embrace the New Year with a determination to work hard and in coherence to grow as an Individual, as an Institute and as Society at large.

With affection, gratitude, and best wishes. Dr. R. G. Dhamsaniya Chairman
