In his address, the Principal, Mr. Anil Kumar, lauded the students’ efforts and acknowledged the presence of the distinguished guests. The Principal shared a thought from his younger days, when he often wondered whether it is the team that makes a leader great, or the leader who makes the team great. Drawing from his life experiences, he elaborated that he had finally found the answer, that a true leader unites the team, leads by example and becomes the binding force that holds everyone together. He expressed his earnest hope that the members of the Student Council would carry forward the values imbibed at school and channel them into serving the nation. He also credited Shri V.K.

Their words resonated with sincerity, passion and a strong sense of duty. Many reminded the audience that “leadership isn’t about being born exceptional, it’s about turning small moments of doubt into motivation”. Others reflected that the “obstacles we dread are never as terrifying as we believe -with each step we take, we conquer not just the moment, but a part of ourselves.” In moving Hindi couplets, they reminded us that:

“यूँ ही नहीं मिलती राही को मंज़िल, दिल में एक जुनून सा जगाना होता है… उड़ान भरनी पड़ती है बार-बार, तिनका-तिनका उठाना होता है।”
