SRI AUROBINDO COLLEGE
The foundation stone of Sri Aurobindo College was laid in 1972 by Delhi University. Named
after one of the popular faces of the Indian freedom struggle, Sri Aurobindo, an Indian
nationalist, philosopher, Guru and poet, the year 1972 was specifically chosen to set up the
institution as it marked the birth centenary of the great patriot. The very existence of the
college stands as a fitting tribute to the memory of its namesake and continues to serve the
cause of the youth of our country by inculcating and promoting ideals and vision of its inspiring
figure.
Located in the heart of South Delhi in Malviya Nagar, Sri Aurobindo offers various programmes
across all disciplines, ranging from arts, commerce to Sciences. It houses some well-equipped
laboratories and a spacious library, which provides access to multiple reputed national and

pool of talented students and providing them a launch pad to enhance their talents. Similarly,
there exists a vibrant debate and literary society to augment the skills of the students.
The success of such educational and extracurricular infrastructure can be gauged from the fact

MONTAGE 2015
On Friday the 13th, the ladies of Jesus and Mary College shook Select City Walk
with their thumkas on the beats of dhinchak Bollywood numbers. The flash mob
was organized to promote their annual fest "MONTAGE 2015".
Montage is a two day festivity where the college hosts numerous students from
institutions all over Delhi and the NCR region. Over 80 colleges of University of
Delhi and various prestigious institutions actively participate in the sets of events
and competition.
It is extremely ironical that Friday the 13th, a day considered to be unlucky, turned out to be
such a splendid day for Jesus and Mary College. With black scarves as their distinct symbol,
they whirled, twirled, swayed and entertained the public with their groovy moves. The
shopaholic crowd found it delightful to catch a preview of what their annual fest
"MONTAGE" would be like.
Their attention grabbing promotion and performance attracted the public and the hoots and
claps for the team effort visualized the involvement and enjoyment of the crowd. London
Market and Clicksbazar happily collaborated with the JMC students to make this event a huge
success. This year MONTAGE will be held on 26-27 March 2015. Keep yourselves updated about
their upcoming events and get a flashback of the flash mob by visiting the following links.
