MCKV celebrates Republic Day & Saraswati Puja

Published on: 26 Jan 2023

The morning of 26 January 2023 shone bright as M.C.Kejriwal Vidyapeeth celebrated the 74th Republic Day. Our dear Director, Mr. Neelkantha Gupta  unfurled the national flag in the presence of  our Trustee, Mr. Abhay Kejriwal; Principal MCKV Institute of Engineering, Mr. Abhijit Lahiri; Principal, Mrs Mallika Mukherjee; Headmaster, Biswajit Majumdar, teachers,  parents and students. As the entire school joined in singing of the National Anthem, our hearts swelled with pride and love for our motherland.

This year the celebrations of Republic Day coincided with the sacred festival of Saraswati Puja. In the calendar of a school, it is the most important and awaited festival. Goddess Saraswati, an embodiment of knowledge, art and creativity, has been the source of inspiration for students, since time immemorial. Students of Classes V to XI were a part of the grand celebrations. Clad in vibrant hues of yellow, the colour of spring, our boys offered pushpanjali to the Goddess, participated in the elaborate yagna, and even distributed prasad at the end of the puja.

The fragrance of flowers, the shlokas chanted by the priests, the enchanting smell of the burning camphor filled the ambience around with positivity and joy. It was truly a blissful morning for all of us.
