Anil Batra (1455)


This is Me

Then & Now

Date of Birth: November 30, 1950
This is how they described me in the College Yearbook: 'BAT', no connection with the bat family of 'Batman' and 'Bat boy', is how he is known among his friends. No less than them though. He is very adept at riding, tennis, swimming, among other games. A very dedicated supporter of his team, whether in it or out, he cheers lustily and literally makes them win by plain cheering. Ever ready to take on anything with proper odds, he is very confident of himself, be it studies or general knowledge. An affectionate and helpful sort of person he is liked by all.
