Dimapur, May 5 (EMN): With the aim to make cadets aesthetically alive by involving them to the various art forms, Sainik School Punglwa (SSP) has conducted an inter-house cultural competition on May 3 and 4.
The programme was organised as part of all round development of the cadets to develop graceful expression through dance, feel the ecstasy of music, emote through drama and express their abstract feelings. It was also organised to internalise culture that reflects their identity, respects their self-esteem and bind them with their fellow men in a diverse pluralistic society not only in India but in the global content.
Cadets from six different houses competed with each other for the coveted trophy of inter-house cultural competition. The cadets staged a remarkable display of skit, mime, group dance, group song, master of ceremony, and a rich cultural dance of Madhya Pradesh and Nagaland under the vision of ‘Ek Bharat Shrestha Bharat.’
The school press release stated that the activities carried valuable messages and showed without doubt that education is not limited to within the four walls of the classroom. At the end of the competition, Melak House edged Saramati House with just a point to claim the inter-house cultural competition championship. Saramati and Japfu secured second and third positions respectively.
The occasion was graced by the school’s principal, Gp Capt Sharad R Keskar as chief guest accompanied by his wife. He presented the trophy to the winners. He educated the cadets about the cultural dance and folk songs of Nagaland and cultural dance of Madhya Pradesh and also spoke on brotherhood, sharing, caring and the importance of knowing culture of other states.
