Plant grove in the name of Abdul Kalam found burnt on College campus

Hundreds of saplings on the campus of Chikkanna Government Arts College in Tirupur were found burnt allegedly by some miscreants early Saturday, police said. Noticing this, a faculty member-cum-NSS officer Mohan, who motivated the students to plant saplings to develop a Kalam Grove on the campus, was so shocked that he swooned, the police said. It was late former President APJ Abdul Kalam who had initiated the green movement which had won the appreciation of one and all. A search has begun for the miscreants, they said.
