I was just looking at an old pendulum clock in one of the rooms of our old house. A marvellous clock inside a carved wooden box with a delicate glass to look through but verily gathering dust on a coarsely plastered wall. The clock box mounted atop with wooden horses on each side and the clock box itself painted with walnut coloured paint and the Roman numbers for depicting hours catching the sight against the white backdrop. Only of late I had been told that the said clock was brought to our house by my late mother, when she came to our home as a bride. I felt a bit nostalgic as these were the sights which treated almost all of us during our childhood days. During those days the ticking of clocks was noticeable enough as there were no mobile phones and Facebooks to keep us engrossed for hours. The only break from the ticking of a clock was the voice from Radio Kashmir Srinagar which presented treats like Kashmiri daastans and verily the cherished Zaafraan zaar in the morning. I still visualise in my memory a black and white Beltech TV, which monotonously used to relay the news which was less understood by us as little children. The aforementioned clock made me remember all this and much more. The clock lies still there, perhaps as a scrap, unable to move its needles while as the time is moving ahead only laying behind a trail of memories wherein I can remember some countenances, some loving and some otherwise and some living and some otherwise.

I think that TIFCS is TIFCS-418 (418 being the total units I guess) aka ESSA-72 in a joint venture with Beltech/TML Engg. Belarus. Elbit TIFCS (internally called TIFCS-1000 for the supposed similar aforementioned reasons) should be mostly managed by ADTL.

Students from the GCSE/BTEC Business classes were at the BelTech conference today. They had speakers from Spotify, Space NI, NI Screen, University of Ulster and others. The main topic was the effective use of AI. An amazing experience for our students, exploring future careers.👏

Today our Year 13 ICT classes thoroughly enjoyed a trip to the Titanic centre for the Beltech Edu 26 Conference. They learned about the power of artificial intelligence in the movie sector and listened to speakers from various IT industries. #careersinIT #womenineducation ✅🏆
