Diamond jubilee: Army Burn Hall completes 75 years

Alumni include senior politicians, generals and bureaucrats

ABBOTTABAD: The historic Army Burn Hall College in Abbottabad marked its diamond jubilee on Sunday. A three-day celebratory event to mark 75 years of the college concluded with an event featuring a host of alumni. Early in the morning, the shrill sound of the house bell rang through the halls of the building which transported the alumni to their old student days when the bell meant a call for the morning assembly in the college’s ground. Many alumni, which include senior politicians, generals and bureaucrats, raced to the ground to the lineup. Late-coming alumni were given some punishments which they thoroughly enjoyed.
