Prof MK Kashiramka Unfurls the Tricolor at JMA Pilani 65th Independence Day Celebrations

The India today we live is infinitely more prosperous, more creative, more resilient and more self assured for a brighter India tomorrow than at any time since obtaining independence on 15th August 1947 when the country came out of the British rule, free to celebrate its diversity and differences, its many languages, faiths and cultures; free to be different and respected for it. The fundamental reason for this transformation is due to the citizens of India who do not hesitate to proclaim with passion "Proud to be an Indian".

Located in the heart of Shekhawati region of Rajasthan, Pilani is well known for various educational institutions, CSIR Laboratory CEERI as well as the upcoming BrahMos Missile Assembly Project unit. Jamuna Mishra Academy – JMA established in the year 2004 which has been making rapid strides in early childhood education is presently one of the most sought after schools at Pilani Rajasthan.

JMA which started with an enrollment of 60 students for the Nursery, LKG, First Junior and Class1 has grown today till Class VIII with well over 500 students. While the school admits both boys and girls, the girl student enrollment has been steadily rising every year and is presently close to 50% of the total strength which itself is a matter of pride in a state like Rajasthan which had alarmingly low record of girl’s education

Though the pouring rains at Pilani sought to be a dampener and an obstacle to the 65th Independence Day celebrations, the enthusiasm of the children ensured that the event was observed with patriotic fervor, gaiety and enthusiasm.

On August 15, 2011, Mrs Booma Natarajan, Principal JMA welcomed the gathering and introduced the Chief Guest well known senior citizen of Pilani Dr Mahendra Kumar Kashiramka who requires no introduction in the entire Jhunjhunu district. He is presently visiting Professor at Birla Institute of Technology and Science – BITS from where he had obtained his bachelors, masters as well as doctoral degrees and also had been serving at the same institution in various capacities for the past over three decades.

After hoisting the flag and the school band playing the National Anthem, Prof Kashiramka inspected the parade and took the salute. The dumble drill display by the students of JMA and the Hindi patriotic poem recited by Jigyasa Saini was appreciated by one and all. The team of children dressed in attractive costumes who danced braving the rains for the immortal song "jahaan Daal-Daal par sone kii chidiyaa karati hai baseraa vo bhaarat desh hai meraa" stole the hearts of the audience.

The group of 30 students who participated on August 14th in the Inter Institutional Patriotic song competition held at Birla Public School (BPS) Pilani and bagged the prize, sang the same song and won a thunderous applause from the audience. Each one of them received a medal from the Chief Guest.

Addressing the gathering Prof MK Kashiramka urged the young boys and girls of the school to become useful citizens for the service of the nation. The Chief Guest had words of praise for the Principal Mrs Booma Natarajan and teachers of JMA who as a team had worked hard to make the school one among the top ranking schools in Pilani.

When the celebrations ended, the parents and children who had come for the function left with beaming faces and pride that they were indeed part of an institution which is a shining jewel in the crown among the schools at Pilani.
