Speaking on the occasion, Dr. Alka Kapur, Principal, Modern Public School, Shalimar Bagh,  emphasized the need to create globally responsible citizens through education. She said,

“Education is the mightiest bridge between different countries. Such events help students think beyond boundaries and stay grounded in their values. Learning should happen not only in schools but should reach out to world leaders. This will help in creating socially responsible youth focused on the Sustainable Development Goals and Viksit Bharat,” she added. Madam Principal reflected the institution’s long-standing philosophy of encouraging international engagement and embracing diverse cultures as an integral part of holistic education at MPS.
