Afterwards Sir Jami Moiz, patron of IBA Boys Hostel Society, thanked the alumni for taking time out of their busy schedule to attend the dinner.

Mr. Abdul Raffay, a student from the class of 1988, was the first to take the podium and reminisced about his time in the hostel. He was impressed with the progress made in the terms of infrastructure and the facilities provided to the residents. However, one thing he stated that would never change was the everlasting bond and affiliation that is forged among the residents of the hostel. He was followed by Anis Ahmed Khan, Batch of 1994 and Iqbal Yasin Batch of 2007.
