History

There was a famous landmark called as Patny Motors. The historic Mehboob College is also located in Patny Circle.[1] Initially founded in 1862 by Mr. Somasundaram Mudaliar as a public school for primary education, a first in those days. This was also where Swami Vivekananda addressed a large gathering in 1893 before he left for Chicago.[2] This college building is declared as a heritage building by HUDA.[3]

gollark: Unfortunately, like many CC things it doesn't seem that customizable and like many neat CC:T things I can't use it because backward compatibility.
gollark: `unserializeJSON` is new, though.
gollark: `textutils.serialiseJSON` exists in CC:T now, fortunately.
