Lucknow, February 14 : The 55,000 students
of all 18 campuses of City Montessori School, gave a strong message of ‘Family
Unity’ by celebrating St Valentine’s Martyrdom Day, ‘Valentine’s Day’ as
‘Family Unity Day’. The students said that the real meaning of Valentine's Day
is to give the message of love, unity and peace to all the members of the
family and society, because Saint Valentine had sacrificed his life for
stability of family and social unity, but some selfish people, for their vested
interests, have given a perverted form of cheap entertainment to his martyrdom
day on 14th February which is adversely affecting the society.
In
this series, a grand online event, 'International Family Unity Festival
(MENAGE)' was organized by City Montessori School, Station Road Campus today.
Chief Guest of the event, Dr Akhilesh Kumar Mishra, IAS, Special Secretary,
Transport, U.P. Government, addressing the audience online, said that there is a need to
motivate the young generation to understand the importance of family unity and
social unity. Students from Russia, the USA, Jordan, Singapore, Bangladesh
and different states of India participated with great enthusiasm in this
International Family Unity Festival, MENAGE.
Speaking on the
occasion, CMS Founder, Dr Jagdish Gandhi said that people are forgetting
the sacred spirit of ‘Valentine’s Day’ and this day is being observed in its
distorted form which is misleading the young generation. He called upon the
teachers and parents to promote unity and peace in the society by showing the
path of morality and good character to children. CMS President, Prof Geeta
Gandhi Kingdon also expressed her views on the occasion. Convenor of
Menage and Principal of CMS Station Road Campus, Mrs Deepali Gautam expressed
her gratitude to all the teachers, parents and participating students of India
and abroad.
