The students of Acharya Institute of Management Sciences recently decided to celebrate Youth Day on their campus. They went out of their way to ensure that the entire college was festive and well-decorated.
Many of the students dressed in their colourful best and spent the day having a good time with their friends.
To add a bit of variety to the occasion, the students decided to attire themselves in traditional costumes of their respective states.
The campus was a whirlwind of colour and activity — the girls wore bright salwar kameezes and kurtis, while the more enthusiastic ones opted to drape saris.
The boys also did their bit, sporting kurtas and pajamas.
There were several competitions that the students could take part in, including a colourful rangoli-making event, which saw a large participation.
There was also a debate and an essay-writing competition. The students went all
out trying their hand at these various events — those who took part in the rangoli-making competition showcased their creative side by coming up with an array
of beautiful designs, which were brightly-coloured and made up of intricate
patterns.
The debate and essay-writing competitions were a little more serious but the students could still be seen volunteering their opinions with a lot of enthusiasm.
The formal part of the programme started off with two of the students of the
college — Suhas and Akanksha — taking the stage and welcoming everyone to the function.
They shared a few thoughts on the occasion and then welcomed the chief guest for the day, Vikas Saxena, who is the founder and chief executive of a professional expertise group on youth responsibility.
He was accompanied by some of the faculty members of the college.
Once this was done, the students were free to interact with each other and a have a good time.
Suhas, one of the students who had kicked off the programme, says that the event was the perfect opportunity for the students to let their hair down.
"It was nice to see the college campus filled with colourful rangolis. It was also great to see our friends in their traditional dresses," he adds. Aditya, who is pursuing his MBA at the college, admits that organising a festive occasion like this made him feel at home on campus.
"It was great to celebrate Youth Day and wish everyone with sweets. I felt as though I was with my family," he concludes.
