For any association to function smoothly, the old has to give way to the new. New ideas, beliefs and working methods have to take BNK forward. It is our sincere request to all Teacher members to consider becoming a part of the BNK committee. Yes, it is a voluntary job, but the satisfaction of a job well done more than makes up for the monetary benefits. Kindly send your name and the post you would be willing to stand for to this email id. Only the Teacher members have the right to exercise their votes and stand for the elections. Though the student members have no voting rights, they are welcome to attend the proceedings.
