Bengaluru: Nowadays the competition is not only at the school level but also at the global level. DCM DK Shivakumar said that children should think globally.
Speaking at a program organized by Jawahar Bal Manch at Gandhi Bhawan in the city on Tuesday, he said, “This country, the world is wide, knowledge is also expanding, accordingly, children should also become knowledgeable. Today’s teachers need to learn more than children.
The luckiest people in the whole world are children. Because their parents provide all kinds of comfort so that children do not suffer as we have to struggle, we should pay tribute to their hardships by achieving them.
When I was a student, I used to participate in all activities and competitions with interest. Playing the base drum in the school band. A friend of mine and I joined a school called Nrityakala Niketana in Chamarajpet to learn Bharatanatyam. He relived old memories that he could study only for 6-7 months due to lack of time.
I participated in the first debate competition when I was in 6th standard. The theme was farmer first – soldier first. Got the first prize in this. He told the students that children should use the opportunities to grow tall.
That means there is nothing inferior in society, even a small blade of grass has its own importance. Before making Ganesha sit, we make a ball of dung, attach grass to it and worship it as Pillarathi. Below Ganesha is the rat, we respect that too, we can’t neglect anything. We also feed small ants. He said that here there is no caste for dung, ants, rats etc. This is our culture.
Achievement has no distinction between rich and poor. He said that children should not worry about bad things, even the son of a poor person can rise to the top of achievement.
Children should keep in mind the four ʼDʼs. “Dream, you should desire for the Dream, you are dedicated to the dream, you should Discipline for the Dream” He spoke inspiring words that you should not jump to touch the sky with a single jump, you should dream about it, work hard and grow with discipline.
Jawahar Bal Manch is working to identify your talents through competition, as if you forget your roots and forget your path. In our time we were not lucky enough to take an award from a minister. It is an achievement that you got an award from the deputy Chief minister today, DK Shivakumar is not a big person, but the position given by the people is big.
This country got freedom with the sacrifice of millions of souls like Mahatma Gandhi, Baba Saheb Ambedkar, Nehru. He said that we are experiencing democracy, work should be done to protect it, children should know more about the strong foundation constitution of this country and the Congress government is working.
No matter which government comes, 30-35% of the money will be allocated for children’s education, health and other activities. He said that our government is also making plans to develop leadership qualities in children.
