Dr. Indu underscored the impact of social surroundings on a child's behavior. She stressed the need for stakeholders, including parents and society, to be vigilant in monitoring the feelings and behavior of children. This awareness contributes to creating a supportive environment for their growth.
The lecture concluded with a poignant quote from Chilean poet Gabriela Mistral, emphasizing the essential role of parents and society in providing nurturing care for children. The quote highlighted the societal responsibility of not abandoning children and recognizing the immediacy of their needs.
The event was successfully organized by Dr. Rudrika Khajuria and Dr. Indu Koul from the English Department, demonstrating a commitment to addressing critical societal issues. The worthy Principal of the college, Dr. B. B Anand, provided able guidance for the event.
