I studied my std IV - std VII here.
The Address:
KV AFS Digaru ,
51 ASP C/O 99 APO
AirForce Station Digaru,
Sonapur , Distt. Kamrup, Assam.
APO is Army Post Office. I dont know what ASP stands for. This is a way of tagging Defence installations eg 25 ED (AFS Deolali, ED stands for Equipment Depot), 54 ASP(AFS Gurgaon), 7 wing(AFS Ambala), 32 wing(AFS Jodhpur) etc ..
This address is some 30 kms from Guwahati. And i have some vivid memories of the place and of 4 years of stay and schooling there.
It has really been a long long time. Thought of searching for some friends on orkut from KV Digaru. Remembered the names of some of the friends then, particularly, Pinkeshwar , which happens to be a very uncommon name. And yes, i got a hit and more-so dint have to browse through a long list. From his page, found a community for KV Digaru and from there got the link to school webpage.
And yes , i remember this entrance to the building. Has nt changed from that time.There is this another image on the site which i am unable to relate to. Appears to be the entrance to the AFS campus or perhaps the entrance to the school premises ,in which case, its a later development.
Shall write more on those 4 years sometime. Oh! How I wish to be able to visit the school campus/AF campus sometime ..

Hey I have been in KV Digaru, in my 3rd to 5th class. Was a wonderful place. Ground me peepal tree tha bohoth bada, and it was a very big ground. School ke piche hills the. me apne dostho ke sath school ke piche vale mountain dekhne jata tha. It was such a nice place,my father worked as JWO at that time we were there for 3 years.
Hey senior. I don't know you. But i am Alumni of KV Digaru as well. Accidently found your blog on the internet just thought to give you some updates about the school ( i studied there from 2006-2018 and yes worked as comp. Instructor for 2 years (2023-25)). So assembly hall me shed lag chuka hai, students no more faint due to heat stroke 😩, classes have smart boards with cctv everywhere. That big Banyan tree was cut down in 2017 and ab teachers or students me pehle jaisa bond nhi raha. School ka naam v ab PM SHRI KV afs Digaru ho gya hai, with balvatika classes (pre-primary) and humanities stream for 11th and 12th as add-ons. Baaki chize same hi hai. 😉
