Prayagraj,
April 29: Kendriya Vidyalaya IFFCO Phulpur hosted a symposium on the second day
of Tarunotsava-2025, a flagship initiative aimed at guiding students toward
academic and professional excellence. The event featured distinguished
speakers, including Dr. Daksha Sharma, Assistant Professor at the Faculty of
Legal Studies, South Asian University, New Delhi, and Dr. Kunvar Shekhar Gupta,
Assistant Professor of English at United University, Prayagraj. The symposium
commenced with a ceremonial tribute to Maa Saraswati, led by the school’s
principal, Durga Dutt Pathak, who offered floral garlands and lit a lamp in her
honor.
The
first session was conducted online, where Dr. Daksha Sharma provided students
with a comprehensive understanding of career opportunities in the field of law.
Addressing the audience, she spoke in detail about various legal domains,
including litigation, corporate law, intellectual property rights, cyber law,
international law, and environmental law. Dr. Sharma emphasized the growing
relevance of legal professionals in navigating complex digital and global
governance structures, urging students to consider law as a dynamic and
evolving career path.
The
second session, held offline, featured Dr. Kunvar Shekhar Gupta, who delivered
an engaging lecture on “How to Refine English Communication Skills to Meet
Modern-Day Requirements”. Addressing students, Dr. Gupta stressed that
effective language skills play a vital role in shaping personality and
professional success. He highlighted key techniques to enhance English
proficiency, including structured speech, precise writing, vocabulary
expansion, and active listening.
Encouraging
students to integrate language learning into their daily routine, he remarked,
“Language is not just a medium of expression, but a bridge to success. The more
you immerse yourself in a language, the more naturally it becomes a part of
your thinking and communication.” He further explained the psychology of
language retention, comparing the human mind to a reservoir, where thoughts
stored in one’s native language may obstruct fluent expression in English. He
advised students to actively use English in their thought process to enable natural
and effortless communication.
Students
engaged enthusiastically with both speakers, participating in discussions that
expanded their understanding of career choices and linguistic mastery. The
event concluded with a vote of thanks by Principal Mr. D. D. Pathak, who
honoured the guest speakers with ceremonial shawls. The symposium was
coordinated by Mr. Sachin Kumar Rai and efficiently moderated by Mr. Prem
Deepak Mishra.
