Dr. Jasdeep Kaur Dhami (Director, Maqsudan Campus, CT Group of Institutions) talked about the importance of girls in society and the need to save girl child. She stressed on the equality, as she said, “We believe in the equality & we celebrate all the festivals with great enthusiasm. In the fast track of modern life man has become so mechanical and selfish in his thoughts and actions that he has no time to enjoy the bounties of nature. As a result many festivals associated with the colourful seasons have become redundant and forgotten and have taken a back seat. However, festivals should be celebrated as they bring life to exuberance and enthusiasm. Celebrating festivals brings brotherhood and harmony in society and can be interpreted as a good time to bring everyone together in symphony and gratitude.”
Charanjit Singh Channi (Chairman, CT Group) appreciated the initiative of the faculty members of organizing a special event in order to celebrate this festival.
