Republic Day Celebration : A Festival of Sports



Republic Day celebrated here at the premises of Shivaji Highschool with patriotic fervor and gusto.  This year Mr. Ashok Shahane, one of the trustees of Larsen and Toubro (L&T) Company was the special invitee of the occasion.  Many sports demonstrations and competitions were the chief attractions of this day.
        After unfurling our National tri-colour, Mr. Ashok Shahane observed the march pass of NCC cadets, Scouts and other school troops.  Little children, dressed-up in traditional costumes of various Indian States, reminded everyone Unity in Diversity.
        Extra flexible skills of Mallkhambers were praiseworthy as they demonstrated various yoga postures on rope.  Then hurdle jumping of horses done by Sainiki Cadets catched eyeball of every viewer present over there.  Finally Mr. Ashok Shahane kicked off inter-school football matches.
                “Skills and knowledge are the driving forces of economic growth and social development in our country.  Every Indian youth should take up industry relevant skill training that will help them in securing a better livelihood.  Skilled artisans will have unlimited opportunities in this 21st century.   Every Indian individual should never depend on bookish knowledge but industrial skill that can assure him a secured career”, said Mr. Ashok Shahane while addressing the faculties of SSM.  He further added, “He will be delighted to co-operate SSM in any of its Skill Development Project.”
