Celebrating our Nation's 76th Independence Day was a magnificent event at St. Paul's High School, Belagavi. Dr. Madhav Prabhu, a successful alumnus and cardio-diabetologist, and also the President of the school's alumni association, graced us as the Chief Guest.
Dr. Prabhu proudly raised our national flag, surrounded by Jesuit and other Management Committee members, parents, alumni, and students. Over 300 proud alumni stood shoulder-to-shoulder with current students, joining teachers and parents in saluting our flag.
The event was filled with prayers, speeches in Indian languages, and patriotic songs, showcasing our school's true spirit of patriotism.
Dr. Prabhu shared inspiring stories from his school days, motivating us to become role models. Fr. Simon Fernandes SJ, the Manager of St. Paul’s Institutions, reminded us to honor our freedom fighters' sacrifices and stand against injustice.
