Two militants were killed and three soldiers were injured in an encounter which broke out at DPS in Srinagar on June 25.
An official spokesperson here today said that the Governor and the First Lady Usha Vohra, inaugurated the Satya Devi Resources Centre for Visually Impaired at Delhi Public School, Srinagar.
He said the Governor and the First Lady visited the School’s Special Education Needs Centre where they interacted with the Faculty and the students at various levels and with different impairments, and learnt about the therapeutic activities which they were undertaking to be able to better manage their impairments and also gain skills.
They also visited the Atal Innovation Laboratory where students apprised them about the varied innovations which they had been able to carry out.
Addressing the students and the Faculty of the DPS, Mr Vohra particularly complimented the management for running the Satya Devi Resources Centre which is carrying out valuable education and capacity building of the specially-abled persons.
He complimented the Centre’s incharge Qurat-ul-Ain for her confidence and her ability to manage the varied activities being carried out here while also pursuing her own higher studies and her interest in Music and Fine Arts.
To reflect his appreciation, the Governor announced financial support of Rs 2 lakh for the strengthening of the Satya Devi Resources Centre and hoped that it will enlarge its admission.
Mr Vohra observed that today there are few areas in the world which are not facing one or the other unrest. And India is a large country which has its own problems, but we should join hands and ensure that inimical factors, internal and external, are not allowed to damage our socio-religious traditions and communal harmony.
The Governor emphasized on the teachers and students that under no circumstances they should let problems take toll of education schedules.
He noted that students of J&K, particularly girls, are extremely bright and highly talented and it is our responsibility to provide our children a stimulating environment which provides them advantage and a positive edge in this age of high competition. He added that a well- aware society is capable of establishing institutions which are efficient and welfare oriented.
The Governor congratulated the students and the teachers of the School for their outstanding achievements in all fields- academics, sports and extra-mural activities. UNI
