A screenshot from this video - this is most probably Swami taking Arati and leaving from Brindavan - the car would be just behind the camera's view.
P. G. boys are staying at Quarters, U. G. at Kalyanamantap. Woke just in time to brush for Suprabhatam. By mid-morning, all Parthi boys arrived. 10:45 College prayer hall combined practice. No feedback at prayer hall - can keep mics open. II year boys had arranged everything - Sanjay Sahni Sir had asked them. Our S. G. Sir kept us at SRH (Sai Ramesh Hall) till 9:45 (when Swami sent word to put mics off!) and then told us to arrange. "Tere Sayein Mein" dropped, as no response. Afternoon did Complex Analysis for one and a half hours.
Evening - sat down - to the right of Sevadal, next to Arnel (one year senior to me, used to play tabla etc.) Could have a nice session of bhajans. Swami came down and walked. Grimace at 'Radhe (5) Govinda' by gents sevadal. You have to endure all the indifference of the "frogs". (Probably a reference to Swami telling students, 'You are like frogs sitting on a lotus leaf, not realizing its value, while devotees from far away come like bees and collect the nectar...')
Trayee - Anil Kumar Sir (Brindavan campus Principal), Dr. Bhatia (Blood bank in-charge at SSSIHMS), Akhileshwaran (MBA student), spoke. Girisha (classmate) told me that they had put his FM mic inside and the hostel deck outside, could hear the speeches. Anil Kumar Sir said Paapa, Taapa, Shaasana, Shaastra to change man. Dr. Bhatia mentioned someone's remark - "Swami is a big businessman, foreigners are customers, all work done inside, all else is a cover-up" and gave the other (positive) meaning.
Struggled to study, fighting sleep, but lights-off by 9:30. Other boys were working, washing plates, cleaning quadrangle etc - Swami's expected (to visit the Hostel) tomorrow.
