The Asian Institute of Technology was deeply saddened and shocked by
the indiscriminate terrorist attack in Mumbai recently. Such violence
is extremely hard to comprehend and the close ties that AIT enjoys with
the Government of India renders this tragedy even more
poignant.
On behalf of AIT, President Said Irandoust expressed his deepest
sympathies to the families of the victims and stressed the Institute’s
solidarity with the people and Government of India at this difficult
time.
The president along with faculty members, staff and students also
paid homage to the hundreds of victims in Mumbai at a
candlelight ceremony on December 1. The large AIT community
attending the on-campus ceremony stood united against such terror in a
spirit of solidarity and peace.
