Mysuru, January 26, 2022: JSS College of Arts, Commerce, and Science on Ooty Road in Mysuru commemorated the 73rd Republic Day on Wednesday, January 26, 2022.
During his address, esteemed chief guest Prof. C. Naganna, a retired Professor from the University of Mysore, highlighted the importance of constitutional ethics and the need to create awareness among the public. He emphasized the historical significance of India as a resource-rich nation that has faced foreign invasions and colonial rule. “Our independence was won through the sacrifices of countless freedom fighters. Independence Day and Republic Day hold immense significance for our nation. The Indian Constitution, comprising 12 volumes, was formulated after extensive discussions and consultations post-independence. Our constitution enshrines principles of equality, brotherhood, and freedom. One crucial aspect of the Indian Republic is the equal treatment of all religions. Economic development must be accompanied by social progress, and in today’s interconnected world, fostering universal alliances is essential. The government must address the growing inequality and the economic slowdown resulting from the post-COVID-19 pandemic. It is imperative to safeguard the educational sector, as any setback will hinder social progress. In this regard, the JSS Educational Institutions have played a commendable role. The success of the JSS Group can be attributed to the blessings of Paramapujya Jagadguru Sri Deshikendra Mahaswamiji,” he remarked.
Prof. B.V. Sambashivaiah, the Chief Executive Officer of the College, hoisted the national flag, marking the commencement of the stage programs. The event commenced with an invocation by Kum. Sushmita. Dr. H.C. Honnappa, the Principal of the College, extended a warm welcome to the esteemed guests. Dr. L. Vinaykumar expertly compered the program, while S. Somashekar, the Principal of the PU College, delivered a vote of thanks.
