Congratulations! Thanks you sir and of course my Great President. Once again the noble pillars of Ananda College are resonating humbleness and pride. " Appamado amatapadam".

Speak selection is good but who has been selected for the deputy speaker is utter foolish.The person who has denied by people is in the place where legislation are made and approved.
