It is with deep sorrow and a heavy heart that we share the tragic news of the untimely passing of our dear alumnus, Mr. Junais V. P. (46), on September 1, 2025. He was serving as the Deputy Librarian at the Kerala Legislative Assembly. We remember him as not only a professional of high repute but also a warm-hearted individual. His sudden demise occurred while he was joyfully performing on stage during the Onam celebrations at the Assembly. This heartbreaking event has left all of us in shock and grief.

At this difficult time, we extend our deepest condolences to his family, friends, colleagues, and everyone who shared a bond with him. May they find strength and solace to bear this irreparable loss.

Junais’s memory will forever live in the hearts of our community. His life reminds us of the beauty of passion, commitment, and kindness.

Rest in peace, dear Junais. You will be missed beyond words.
