One boy showcased his musical talents by singing a bhajan on SHREE RAM, with everyone joining in the concluding lines. The overarching theme was the commitment to serving the nation in various capacities.
Vaid encouraged the students to take proactive steps towards realizing their dreams while emphasizing the importance of acquiring good moral values and being responsible citizens.
