JMA Pilani Independence Day Celebrations Special Olympics Area Director UK Pandey Unfurls Tricolor

PILANI, India - Aug. 18, 2013 - PRLog --  

The India today we live is infinitely more prosperous, more creative, more resilient and more self assured for a brighter India tomorrow than at any time since obtaining independence on 15th August 1947 when the country came out of the British rule, free to celebrate its diversity and differences, its many languages, faiths and cultures; free to be different and respected for it. The fundamental reason for this transformation is due to the citizens of India who do not hesitate to proclaim with passion "Proud to be an Indian".

Located in the heart of Shekhawati region of Rajasthan, Pilani is well known for various educational institutions, CSIR Laboratory CEERI as well as the upcoming BrahMos Missile Assembly Project unit. Jamuna Mishra Academy – JMA established in the year 2004 which has been making rapid strides in early childhood education is presently one among the top ranking and most sought after schools at Pilani Rajasthan.

JMA which started with an enrollment of 60 students for the Nursery, LKG, First Junior and Class1 has grown today till Class X with well over 700 students. While the school admits both boys and girls, the girl student enrollment has been steadily rising every year and is presently close to 50% of the total strength which itself is a matter of pride in a state like Rajasthan which had alarmingly low record of girl’s education.

 

On August 15, 2013, Mrs Booma Natarajan, Principal JMA welcomed the gathering and introduced the Chief Guest Sri U K Pandey who requires no introduction in the entire state as he is the Area Director for Special Olympics Bharat State of Rajasthan . He is presently Principal of Amla Birla Kendra School for Special Children at Pilani. It is indeed a matter of pride that so far 7 children from this school have won medals in various international competitions.

After hoisting the flag and the school band playing the National Anthem, Sri UK Pandey inspected the parade and took the salute. The group song Jai Jai Bharat by the JMA students indeed stole the hearts of the entire audience present for the occasion.  

 

Addressing the gathering, Sri UK Pandey urged the young boys and girls of the school to become useful citizens for the service of the nation and respect the rights of special children at all times. The Chief Guest had words of praise for the Principal Mrs Booma Natarajan and teachers of JMA who as a team had worked hard to make the school one among the top ranking schools in Pilani. To a thunderous applause, for the Patriotic Song Competition held at JMA Pilani on August 14, 2013, the Chief Guest Sri UK Pandey gave the prizes to Venus House which had emerged as the winner for the song “Tu Zinda Hai To, Zindgi ki Jeet Mein Yakin Kar” and Runner up Jupiter house for the song “Jai Jai Rashtra Mahan”. Mrs Sangita Jangid proposed the vote of thanks.

 

When the 67th Independence Day celebrations ended, the parents and children who had come for the function left with beaming faces and pride that they were indeed part of an institution which is a shining jewel in the crown among the schools at Pilani.
