Army Public School in Guwahati's Narangi on Monday commemorated the 77th Republic Day with great enthusiasm, dignity, and patriotic fervour, reaffirming its commitment to national values, civic responsibility, and holistic education.

According to the Defence release, the celebrations commenced with the Bandana Baruah (Principal) unfurling the National Flag, followed by the singing of the National Anthem, which instilled a deep sense of pride and unity among students, staff, and guests.

A melodious choir performance enriched the occasion, echoing themes of patriotism, sacrifice, and national harmony.

Extending the spirit of Republic Day beyond the school campus, students of Army Public School Narangi were invited to participate in the march past during the Republic Day celebrations held at the Assam Legislative Assembly complex, marking a moment of pride and honour for the institution.

Additionally, a team of 12 students performed a vibrant skit titled "Viksit Bharat: Sapne Se Safalta Tak" (From Dreams to Destiny: A Student's Vision for a Superpowered India 2047) at Lok Bhawan, capturing the aspirations of young India and envisioning a progressive, inclusive, and empowered nation.

Demonstrating its commitment to environmental responsibility, APS Narangi also initiated an e-waste collection and recycling drive as part of the Republic Day celebrations, reinforcing the message of sustainable development and a greener future.

Jai Hind! The e-waste drive is a brilliant initiative. Patriotism isn't just about flags and songs; it's about taking responsibility for our nation's future, including its environment. Kudos to the school for this holistic approach. More schools should follow this model.

The article beautifully captures the spirit of the day. However, I do hope the "Viksit Bharat" vision discussed by the students is inclusive of *all* regions and communities, ensuring no one is left behind in the journey to 2047. That is the true spirit of the Republic.

Bandana Baruah Madam and the entire APS Narangi team have done a fabulous job. These events shape character. My nephew studies there and he couldn't stop talking about the choir and the skit practice for days. This is real education.

While the celebrations in Delhi with the PM and chiefs are grand, it's these local school events that truly keep the republican spirit alive at the grassroots. The pride on a child's face when they hold the flag is unmatched. Happy Republic Day!
