January 31st, 2019. Knowledge Resource centre. The Bhawanipur Education Society College seized the initiative to break the stereotype that it is only on special days like August 15th and January 26th that the Nation should talk patriotism. The response, “Tum par hai Qurban”, organised and conducted by Prof Vasundhara Mishra acclaimed poetess was a resounding success as the teachers and students – about a hundred of them – concurred.
Prof Dilip Shah, the Dean of Student Affairs of BESC, Prof Minakshi Chaturvedi, Mohit Agarwal, Chandan Jha, Sourav Goswami were there in force as were a number of students who not only participated in the proceedings but also went out of their way to wear their patriotism on their sleeves.

Instead, patriotism should be a part of our lives, like breath, in everything that we do. We must remember the sacrifices that our forefathers committed to win us the freedom that we take for granted and do every little bit, everyday to keep the fire burning inside” said Prof Dilip Shah to a rousing applause.
