Principal Sh. Sushil Kumar Kanwa expressed his heartfelt gratitude, describing the program as deeply meaningful and empowering for the teachers. He said, “This program will not only enrich our teachers but also positively influence their families, students, and society at large. On 5th September, Teachers’ Day, we celebrated together with the TPRF team and felicitated 40 teachers of our school by presenting them with the books ‘Hear Yourself’, ‘Swayam ki Awaaz’ and ‘Swaans’ authored by international peace educator Prem Rawat, whose writings and talks inspire millions around the world to discover inner peace.”
He further highlighted, “The National Education Policy (NEP 2020) places teachers at the center of educational transformation, giving them utmost respect and recognition. By enabling teachers to go through the Peace Education Program, we are complementing NEP’s vision and helping educators experience a transformation that has already impacted lives globally.”
