Azadi Ka Amrit Mahotsav at SDMIMD Mysore

SDMIMD celebrated the Azadi Ka Amrit Mahotsav by paying respect to the leaders and calling the young managers to be the change agents in reaching the message of Mahotsav. 
 
Dr. Riyaz Ahamed K., Faculty, SDMIMD, was the chief guest and hoisted the tricolor. Speaking on occasion, Dr. Riyaz recalled the different phases of independence and said, 'in the Indian independence struggle, three levels of heroes must be saluted. The unknown sacrifices are not recorded in history, the regional and national heroes. For instance, Sri Ramchandra Rao, the Mahatma of Mysore, likewise, all states and ethnic groups have leaders who equally sacrificed their lives like national heroes. Bhagat Singh is a national hero and role model for his determination and commitment to the nation. Irrespective of ethnic group, language, religion, caste, and other differences, all the heroes have equally contributed to the independence of the nation' Further, he called upon the young managers to be the change agents and said, 'Change should start within like APJ Kalam noted, where there is righteousness in the heart, there is beauty in character, harmony at home, and brings order to the nation and peace to the world.'
 
Distribution of certificates to the sports achievers, patriotic song recitation by the students, and sharing of thoughts from the faculty & students marked the celebration. 
 
The Director Dr. N R Parasuraman, Deputy Director Dr. S N Prasad, Faculty Members, Staff Members, and Students joined the celebration.
