Chitkara University’s inaugural alumni meet, CHANDIGARH NOSTALGIA 2013, was held on 26th January 2013 at the Chitkara International School, Sector 25, Chandigarh. The 160-odd alumni who attended the meet were acquainted with the various developments at, and milestones achieved by, the University over the years. They were also informed about the future plans of the Chitkara Alumni Network.

Pro-Chancellor, Dr Madhu Chitkara addressed the gathering and expressed her happiness over the large number of alumni who made it to the event. She explained to the alumni−who she addressed as the members of the Chitkara family−how Chitkara University had evolved over the years. She added that Chitkara University was poised to move onto the next level, and urged greater engagement and participation from the alumni in the further development of the University.

This was followed by Dr Sandhir Sharma−Dean Chitkara Business School−, and Dr Rajnish Sharma−Dean Electronic Communication, Chitkara University−, together taking the stage. They quoted Swami Vivekananda’s words, “All strength is within you”, and, “You are the creator of your own destiny”, and explained the universal relevance of these timeless words. After their combined address, the alumni were taken through the TINK TANK (Innovation Incubator) process.
After the completion of the formalities, it was time for some fun and frolic. Live performance by the famous stand-up comedian Rajiv Thakur had the alumni, staff and students in splits. An energetic dance performance by the current students regaled the audience, while the biggest surprise of the day came when the Chancellor, Dr Ashok Chitkara delivered an impressive, inspiring drums-playing performance. It was an apt moment for all present to look inside their selves and explore their potential.

A cake–cutting ceremony, followed by a sumptuous lunch concluded the highly successful event, which saw the alumni promising to meet every year to keep in touch with their alma mater, and with each other
