Famous musicians and politicians participated in the event, despite their hectic schedules. Former students from far away places attended with families to make the get together an exclusive one. 

Guruvandanam, a component of the event that felicitated the senior students who have proved their mettle in their respective fields, became a spirited platform. 

Music Director Vidyadharan Master was the chief guest of the programme titled NADAM at Kozhikode; aptly expanded as Nostalgic Assembly of Devout and Ardent Musicians.  

Eminent lyricist Kaithapram Damodharan Nampoothiri, Music Director L.Sasikant, Mankada Damodharan Master, Prof.K.V Sasi Varma and Prof.K.Narayanan Nampoothiri were honored.
