AIFD is established in the year 2004 by Army Welfare Education Society. The Institute records 100% placements from its inception. The students have become AIFD ambassadors in the Industry and started increasing the Institute visibility in the Industry.
Hence, the Institute realised to have an Alumni Association; initially it had informal Alumni Association wherein by default the passing out students become the alumni of the Institute. Once the alumni strength crossed 500 nos, the Institute started conducting Alumni Meet every year to improve the interactions among the students and the alumni. At present, the approx. strength of the alumni association is 900.
In the year 2022, the Principal and Registrar took initiative for registering the Alumni Association formally and assigned the task to the Placement Coordinator to proceed for the same. Registrar identified an Advocate and asked to coordinate with the Placement Coordinator for further process. The Advocate guided the process to register the Alumni Association.
Once the Institute had mooted idea of registering, as per the process, the office bearers need to be selected and Institute conducted online election to select the office bearers of the institute. By the online interactions with the Alumni, a consensus was arrived at the having President from first passed out batch, Vice President from Second Passed out batch, Secretary and Treasurer from the recently passed out batches. Google form was prepared and sent to all the alumni through whatsapp, email, facebook. The alumni took active participation and elected the office bearers. As per the Registration Cooperative Societies Act, the minimum office bearers should be 7 including President, Vice President, Secretary, Treasurer. The Office Bearers list is attached as Appendix 1.
The Institute applied for registration in Jan 2021 with Registrar Cooperative Society, Government of Karnataka under Karnataka Cooperative Association 1960 Act as per sl no. 17 Notification - Registration of Cooperative Societies. Since the Institute belongs to the Jurisdiction of Horamavu (KR Puram), the application submitted to District of Registrar of Societies, Zone-3, Bangalore Urban dist.
