It began ...

After almost 21 years the cement floor of the Year 10/11 building at Dharmaraja College got the caring attention, as our group (Rajans 94) commenced the renovation work on Friday 5th of September 2014. Hundreds of thousands of students walked on this floor for almost 21 years before it slowly got crumbled. Repairing a floor is not a very hard work but if that floor is of a classroom of a popular school it won't be an easy task. That's why we planned to commence it during a long weekend. We were able to evacuate this building and relocate the furniture. Then completed the cleaning of the floor. As we look at the empty floor we realize that the damage is far beyond our estimation. The walls are also damage severely. We could see through some of the holes. These are the photographs of the empty floor and the walls of the building.

As the floor of the building was chipped off we all realized that the plaster of the walls are also in very poor condition so there were some extra work. So the wall plaster was also removed upto about three feet. Now we will re-plaster the walls also.

This is what happened on 5th day ...
