Dear Mr, Hanumanthiaya,
I have pleasure in
enclosing copies of the brochures of my Engineering College as well as of the Central
Electrochemical Research Institute prepared and issued in connection with the visits of
the Presi- dent Dr. Rajendra Prasad, and the Vice-President Dr. Radhakrishnan. I may take
this occasion to inform you that Mr. D.S. Venkanna, formerly of your State Service
(Retired Chief Engineer and Head of the Occupational Institute) has now joined us as
Principal of the Engineering College since yesterday I trust the brochure will be of some
interest to you and the 'Events & Dates', which I am enclosing, will give you some
details about the efforts we make in various directions in furthering the objects of our
educational endeavor.
Ever since I met you at Sir
Shanmukham Chettiar's house the other day at Coimbatore in the company of the
distinguished Dr. Bunche I have been anxious to call on you little leisurely and have the
privilege of your acquaintance. I understand from the papers that you have recovered your
normal good aheer.
I am arriving at Bangalore
on the 31st morning by Air India and intend to stay for the day at Bangalore looking up
the Krishnaraj Disposal Depot with a view to choose some equipment for the Engineering
College in the company of my Principal, Sri Venkanna, and I intend to leave for Sringeri
on the Ist April for a few days' stay in that sacred place of pilgrimage. I wonder whether
you can find it convenħent to grant me a little time to enable me to meet you and just
have a little talk. There is nothing very particular excepting my desire to call on you
and cuħtivate you acquaintance. I shall be grateful if you could kindly reply to this
letter to my Madras address (at Krishna Vilas, Vepery, Madras-7).
I look forward to the great
day of receiving you in my college campus sometime soon.
Praying for your good
health and with kind regards,
