For 60 years, Mussoorie Academy has been a place of memory and continuity

Undoubtedly, it has moved with the times and is now far more technically equipped and modernised from our days in early Nineties. And yet, there are still nooks and corners that remind one of the cultural and historic legacy of the place.

It was 60 years ago, in the first week of September, 1959, that the Mussoorie Academy, later named after our late prime minister as the Lal Bahadur Shastri National academy of Administration or LBSNAA, was established in the erstwhile premises of the Hotel Charleville and the Happy Valley Club, on the far end of the British hill station. So, it was only in the fitness of things that the academy invited some of its past faculty and staff on this occasion to mark the milestone. It was nice to see generations of directors and staff coming together to share their memories of the place, on the green lawns of the academy, with the Himalayas as a majestic backdrop.
