He felicitated the faculty and staff for their valuable contributions and urged them to draw inspiration from the life and ideals of Dr Radhakrishnan, remembering their commitment to serving the nation through education.
A special role-reversal activity was also organised during school hours, in which senior cadets stepped into the role of teachers and conducted classes for junior students. The activity provided cadets with hands-on experience in mentorship and helped them develop leadership qualities, confidence and a sense of responsibility.
