Gorakhpur, Uttar Pradesh.
The purpose of education is not merely to acquire bookish knowledge, but also to develop scientific thinking, creativity, practical skills, and self-confidence in students. To achieve this objective, a grand science skills exhibition was organized at the M.A. Academy, Turkmanpur, Gorakhpur, under the Seva Sankalp Abhiyan, on the occasion of the birth anniversary of Dr. A.P.J. Abdul Kalam, former President of India and a great scientist, the "Missile Man of India." The students of the school captivated guests and parents with a brilliant display of their talent, imagination, and technical understanding.
The various scientific, historical, cultural, and technological models prepared by the students were a center of attraction at the exhibition. The children presented many attractive models, including Gorakhpur's famous Imambara, Gorakhnath Temple, Howrah Bridge, various dams, Qutub Minar, Taj Mahal, Red Fort, waterfall, robotic park, volcano, igloo, rocket, hand-made clock, bouquet, flower pot. The successful test of a missile designed by the students was also a major highlight of the program. Through these models, the students demonstrated their scientific understanding, hard work, imagination, and experimental knowledge.
The program began with a recitation from the Holy Quran by Amaira Aqib. Guests were then welcomed and treated to a science and skill-based exhibition prepared by the students. The guests viewed the children's models, learned about their working methods, and encouraged them, praising their efforts.
The chief guest of the program, Qazi Maulana Mufti Matiur Rahman Qasmi of Gorakhpur city, highlighted the importance of education in his address, saying that education not only improves individual lives but also paves the way for the development of society and the nation. Along with studies, students should develop the habit of learning new things, asking questions, and experimenting. He said that science exhibitions provide children with an opportunity to showcase their talents. When students construct models themselves, they not only gain information but also strive to understand and apply the subject in practice. Such activities not only enhance children's knowledge but also develop self-confidence, hard work, and a sense of responsibility. He showered the students with his blessings and wished them a bright future.
Honorary Vice Chancellor and Head of Dhara Dham International, Dr. Saurabh Pandey, who presided over the program, offered his blessings and best wishes to the students in his presidential address. He said that creative and practical activities, along with education, are essential for the all-round development of children. He said that science exhibitions give students the opportunity to give reality to their imaginations. When children create models themselves and share them with others, they enhance their logical thinking, presentation skills, communication skills, and self-confidence. Such events play an important role in preparing children for future challenges.
Dr. Pandey praised the efforts of the MA Academy students and expressed hope that the school's students will achieve success in the fields of education, science, and technology by giving even better presentations in the future.
Dr. Goswami Gaurav Bharti, the special guest of the program and National President of the Rashtriya Vidyalaya Prabandhak Sangh, said that Dr. A.P.J. Abdul Kalam's entire life is a source of inspiration for students. His contributions to science, technology, and nation-building gave the country a new identity and inspired the youth to dream big and achieve their dreams. He said that testing missile models and presenting science-based projects by students are true tributes to Dr. Kalam. Such activities foster a scientific outlook in children and inspire them to become future scientists, engineers, researchers, and innovators. He said that science exhibitions should be held regularly in schools to provide students with opportunities to showcase their talents, conduct new experiments, and realize their potential.
In his address, Dr. Dinanath, the special guest of the program and Chief Trustee of the Gayatri Parivar, said that for the all-round development of students, it is not enough to limit oneself to textbooks. Along with studies, participation in cultural programs, science exhibitions, model-making, and other creative activities is also essential. He said that when children have the opportunity to showcase their talents, their hidden potential comes to the fore. Science exhibitions teach students to present their ideas in an organized manner, find solutions to problems, and work collaboratively. This boosts their self-confidence, enabling them to excel in their chosen fields in the future. He commended the efforts of the school management and teachers, stating that such events play a significant role in the development of children's personalities.
Dr. Ajit Kumar Chaudhary, a senior arthroscopic surgeon from Gorakhpur, also offered his blessings to the students. He praised the children's efforts and encouraged them to continue learning, work hard, and remain dedicated to their goals. He stated that science and technology have brought about significant changes in almost every field of life, including medicine. Students' scientific thinking and experimental approach play a crucial role in the development of new discoveries and modern technologies. Such exhibitions introduce children to the practical aspects of science and inspire them to develop new ideas.
Addressing the students, Seraj Ahmed Qureshi, the event's chief guest and National President of the Indian Journalist Association, said that children are the future of tomorrow. They shape their personalities according to the environment, education, and values they receive. Therefore, it is society's important responsibility to guide children in the right direction, recognize their talents, and provide them with opportunities to thrive. He stated that the Science Skills Exhibition is an effective medium to bring out the hidden talents within students. Such exhibitions develop children's ability to innovate, seek answers to difficult questions, find solutions to problems, and present their ideas with confidence.
Seraj Ahmed Qureshi stated that Dr. A.P.J. Abdul Kalam's life taught the message that even students born in ordinary circumstances can achieve extraordinary things through hard work, dedication, education, and determination. He inspired students to dream big, study with discipline, and become useful citizens for the country and society. He commended the school management, teachers, and parents for their efforts toward the all-round development of the children.
The program was successfully conducted by the institution's Director, Dr. Mohammad Aqib Ansari. He elaborated on the program's objectives, explaining that under the Seva Sankalp Abhiyan, efforts are being made to inculcate practical skills in students, along with bookish knowledge. Through the science exhibition, children had the opportunity to create their own models, understand new technologies, and utilize their creative abilities. He added that the school's goal is to provide quality education to students and develop them as self-reliant, aware, and responsible citizens.
