    Congratulations to Roshni Nilaya on her Golden Jubilee Celebrations. I cherish the memories of my teaching stint there with so many highly professional and friendly colleagues, not forgetting the founder Principal, Dr Olinda Pereira and her successor, Dr Philomena De Souza. Their noble guidance is also worth remembering. Roshni Nilaya influences its students daily to achieve greater goals in life and to be positive and constructive graduates. Roshni Nilaya is well-recognised and fast-growing throughout India. My husband and I wish the Institution many more years of fruitful service and smooth sailing.
