At the rear end of Bhawani Kunj behind D-2 of Vasant Kunj in Delhi the
main entry gate of the physical site from where TVB-SHS has been
running, now stands closed and locked with a seal. Several doors of
the two greenish building blocks in which various academic and
administrative activities have been running also are locked with
seals. Till Friday (at least) one small side gate was left open,
possibly provisionally allowing nominal pedestrian access for some
logistical purpose . One could go in and walk up to the empty green
patches, look across the wall at the far end to view the top of the
temple on the adjacent land behind and take a stroll to to the small
pit dressed with curvilinear steps as an open air theater or to the
car porch converted into a sitting place where many discussions
happened till very recently; one could still peep into the small
roofless court space where some colourful posters and more stern
looking notices were still hanging around the tree pit . In the
August evening one felt a bit haunted by the eerie calm interspersed
with heady nostalgia.
It is heard that TVB-SHS have had no new batch of students admitted
this season so far. TVB-SHS it appears is still existing in the form
of four batches of current students, some faculty and administrative
staff looking for an alternative foothold.
