Vakunde, I was spared from Ale Sir's canes but did receive quite a few khottas from Jhuma Miss, "dalle" bhandai. Both were great teachers. Ale Sir taught us in class 10 when Jhuma Miss was absent after her husband passed away. I can not thank her enough for her recommendation letter that must have played a crucial role in admission to a US college. After the scandal, Parshu Ram (I think he was either in admissions or accounting) covered for the rest of the year. Khagendra Baidya was the new teacher after that but I think he was there for only a year or two.
