The 6th APX meeting for the year 2021-22 was held on Friday, May 20th, 2022. We had a good attendance and especially after a tough past two years was like a family reunion.

The local that is APX , province that is JAAG , zonal that is JAAI West Zone, JAAI & WUJA activities and upcoming programs were discussed and suggestions taken and addressed. The activities of the past few months were discussed and appreciated.

On Saturday the 26th of March 2020, the Batch of 1983  came forward to donate a Blood Collection Recliner & 5 Wheelchairs to the Guru Nanak Medical Foundation.

This is not the first time that the 1983 batch has done something of this nature but time and again they have catered to the Gurudwara during Covid times and various other projects related to their Alma Mater and beyond.

Mr. Mohinder Kandhari, Batch of 1975 (Old SSC), rightly puts it, what our school has given us is what we are trying to practice and in doing so, Mohinder Kandhari, Secretary of Gurudwara Guru Nanak Darbar (GGND) is instrumental in doing yeoman service with the facilities provided at the Gurudwara, having their own hospital with state of the art infrastructure, with the charges to its bare minimum, they also run a full fledge School & College as well as feeding the poor on a daily basis.
