69th Independence Day Celebration

‘On this day the first thought which comes to the mind is that of our martyrs and patriotic leaders and many soldiers who have laid down their lives fearlessly to give us back our freedom. Let us all pray a tribute to these great men and women in our hearts for their unselfish act of valor, without which we wouldn’t have been celebrating our 69th independence day’ said Prof. Nilanjan Sengupta, and Professor OB & HR, during the speech delivered after hoisting the Tricolor National Flag at SDMIMD, Mysuru. 

Prof. Sengupta called upon students saying ‘even today so many our countrymen languish under abject poverty and are denied the basic amenities of life. We are the lucky few who have been blessed with many of comforts and facilities. And, hence, we should pause and reflect on this issue. In our own ways, we can explore and see how we can contribute to make the lives of our less fortunate countrymen more meaningful and less painful’. The brief function concluded with the distribution of sweets and community breakfast.
