Sri Aurobindo College of Commerce and Management which has made a dent in the state for its first rank academics, first rank stageability and first rank co-murals, organised a gala cultural fest ‘Rangmanch 2024’, bathed in hallowed glory and grandeur on February 17. The ‘Rangmanch’ purports to drill in the young minds a yearning for the finer arts of dance and melody. The college always takes up cudgels to steer the young brains towards the holistic development. The chief guest for the fest was none other than Ms. Suchita Oswal Jain, Vice-Chairperson and Joint Managing Director, Vardhman Textiles. The fest set into motion with the grand spectacle of inauguration by honourable. madam Suchita.
28 teams from 14 colleges made the show festive with their zealous participation. The secretary of the Governing Body Sh. R. K. Rewari and Principal of the college Prof. Dr. Vishal Kumar warmly welcomed the Chief guest Ms. Suchita Oswal Jain.
Lighting of the candelabra was done by the honourable chief guest along with other dignitaries. Inaugural address was read by Dr. Manpreet Kaur and introduction about the fest was given by Dr. Jaspreet Kaur. Then Principal of the college, Dr. Vishal presented the welcome address. He exhorted the students to be more participative in the events that go beyond the classrooms so that young men and women are fully prepared to face life in a better way. Then there was a presentation of devotional song. Shiv Vandana (classical dance performance) by the dance teacher Mridul Rajpal truly lighted up the auditorium.
Then Prof. Sahil Ghai read the citation for Ms. Suchita Oswal Jain, Vice Chairperson and Joint Managing Director, Vardhman Textile. After the citation, madam Suchita Oswal Jain addressed the audience in which she enlarged upon the college and exhorted the faculty and the students to work still harder so that the college becomes a cynosure in the field of education. Ms. Jain, created a stir through her magnanimous address and eloquent style.
Th next event was the honouring of the distinguished guests—– worthy Principals of other colleges and schools. ‘Nritya Sangam’ was the next regaling event, and it was followed by singing competition. Ms. Sachi Garg gave the guest performance by way of classical dance, and this was followed by dance competition (Bollywood free style). ‘Sartarang,’, a singing competition greatly enticed the audience. The folk dance was the next item which was applauded by one and all. Then the SACCM students presented a soulful performance ‘Colours of India’. This was followed by announcement of judgements, and prize distribution function. Vote of thanks was presented by Prof. Kanwaljeet Singh. Last but not the least, rather the utmost, was the rendition of National Anthem. Thus came the grand and the gala show to a close. It must be mentioned here that the students through their mesmerising performances captivated the minds and hearts of the spectators. All were all acclaim for them. The winning participants were honoured with trophies and cash prizes, totalling Rs. One lakh eighty eight thousand.
Principal Dr. Vishal Kumar’s seamless and untiring efforts took the whole show to the ultimate level. Secretary, college Governing Body, Sh. R. K. Rewari’s indefatigable persona, work-a-holic orientation towards service to college is at the back of the meta success of the function. Everything would smack of incompleteness if it is not mentioned that catholicity of temperament and charitable disposition of the worthy Chairman Sh. S. P. Oswal paved way towards the grandeur that the fest presented.
