Annakut 2025 at Khole Ke Hanuman Ji Temple in Jaipur promises grandeur, harmony and tradition — with 450+ cooks, 41 furnaces-

Published

Annakut 2025 at Khole Ke Hanuman Ji

Jaipur, Oct.24,2025:Annakut 2025 at Khole Ke Hanuman Ji marks a spectacular moment in Jaipur’s spiritual-calendar and civic life, combining faith, feast and fellowship in a grand public gathering. At the heart of the event: a massive Lakhi Mahotsav, rolls of delicacies, thousands of devotees, and deep resonance of communal unity. The festival is unique not only in scale but in its intention to unify multiple communities around gratitude for nature’s bounty and the harvest season-

As we unpack the event in this article, we’ll explore its many layers: the rituals, the logistics, the social significance, and the linking of tradition and modern outreach.

Annakut 2025 at Khole Ke Hanuman Ji

The term Annakut denotes a “mountain of food” offering, traditionally associated with the Hindu festival of Govardhan Puja, but also adopted in many temples as a thanksgiving ritual for the autumn harvest of grains and vegetables. In 2025, at the acclaimed Khole Ke Hanuman Ji Temple in Jaipur, it takes on renewed meaning.

Scheduled for 9 November 2025, this year’s event will gather over 450 cooks working across 41 furnaces to prepare prasad (temple food offerings) for devotees and represent a substantive public event of thanksgiving, ritual and local cultural interaction.

The temple complex, historically rich and located on Lakshman Dungri hill in the Aravalli range, forms a scenic, elevated spiritual site near Jaipur, blending natural beauty, legend and active worship.

Thus, Annakut 2025 at Khole Ke Hanuman Ji becomes more than a religious ritual—it emerges as a powerful communal spectacle, fusing devotion, logistics and social engagement.

the Annakut 2025 Event

Monumental Scale of Preparation

  • Over 450 cooks (halwai) will be mobilised.
  • Food will be cooked on 41 furnaces (bhatti).
  • The event expects approximately 1.75 lakh (175,000) devotees to partake in the communal prasad.
  • More than 60 additional temples in the surrounding area will also participate, offering mixed grains (moong, moth, bajra, rice) and poori etc. across their premises. This sheer scale underlines the organisational ambition and the logistical arrangements behind the festival.

Deep Ritual Significance & Timing

  • The ritual begins with an abhishek (ceremonial bath) of the deity early in the morning, followed by bestowal of a cloth (chaula) and a grand decoration of the idol.
  • The “56 bhog” (56 varieties of offerings) will be presented to the deity—a traditional mark of Annakut-type festivals.
  • The date aligns with the start of the post-monsoon/new-harvest season, symbolising gratitude for nature’s gifts.

Inclusivity & Communal Harmony

  • The Annakut at Khole Ke Hanuman Ji is explicitly noted as a symbol of inter-community harmony, moving beyond past exclusive patterns.
  • In addition to the main temple, 61 nearby temples will host similar offerings and serve prasad, expanding reach beyond one site.
  • A dedicated community function (Sneha Mil­an) by the Agarwal society (Malviya Nagar branch) will honour meritorious students at 3 pm and then share prasad at 4:30 pm on the same day.

Resonance with History & Royal Patronage

  • Historian Devendra Bhagat points out that former Maharajas of Jaipur (e.g., Madhosingh Jai Singh II lineage) used to personally pull the chariot of Thakur Ji on the Annakut day, showing the regal heritage of the ritual.
  • The event evokes memory of past practices wherein every neighbourhood had a “Nagar Prasad Adhikari” to distribute the offerings to those in need—a link to socially-aware tradition.

Participate & Benefit

Devotees & Faith Seekers

For residents of Jaipur and pilgrims from around Rajasthan, the Annakut 2025 at Khole Ke Hanuman Ji offers a deepened religious experience: a large-scale offering, a chance to receive prasad in huge numbers, and the feeling of being part of a major city-wide spiritual movement.

Students, Scholars & Community Groups

The inclusion of functions to honour meritorious students via the Agarwal society means that the festival transcends purely ritual boundaries; it touches educational and social upliftment spheres as well.

Local Communities & Vendors

Advertisement

The preparation of food across 41 furnaces and engagement of over 450 cooks will generate substantial temporary economic activity—food-services, supplies, logistics, crowd-management—all bring multiplier effects for local artisans, vendors and workers.

Social & Communal Fabric

By explicitly positioning the ritual as an example of social unity and including 61+ temples across localities, the festival helps knit a broader communal fabric, fostering inter-temple cooperation, shared logistics and inclusive distribution of prasad.

Cultural Legacy & Social Harmony Underlining the Annakut 2025

Heritage of the Khole Ke Hanuman Ji Temple

The Khole Ke Hanuman Ji Temple stands on the Lakshman Dungri hill of the Aravalli range. Historically a less accessible site, it was transformed over decades into a prominent spiritual landmark thanks to devotional leadership and community efforts.

This legacy lends weight to the Annakut event, connecting modern-day festivity with layers of cultural memory.

Advertisement

Symbol of Gratitude & Nature’s Bounty

Annakut festivals celebrate the harvest of grains, pulses and produce—implicitly acknowledging the role of nature and farmers. This dimension adds a layer of ecological and agrarian gratitude to the ritual.

Public Ritual, Civic Dimension

By hosting thousands of devotees, coordinating multiple kitchens, and ensuring distribution across neighbourhoods, the festival takes on a civic character. The post of “Nagar Prasad Adhikari” is a reminder that faith events in Jaipur have also functioned as civic-social operations.

Fostering Communal Harmony

The event’s explicit outreach to multiple temples and communities positions it as a catalyst for unity in a city of multiple sects, castes and social organisations. Organisers describe it as now a “symbol of camaraderie and social unity.”

Logistics, Feast Details & Scale of the Event

Preparations & Infrastructure

Advertisement
  • Over 450 cooks, engaged for days ahead in meal-preparation planning.
  • 41 furnaces represent multiple simultaneous kitchens—each likely handling different types of dishes (grains, pulses, vegetables, sweets).
  • Plans include prasad for about 1.75 lakh devotees—meaning distribution lines, serving counters, seating/pangat arrangements must be in place.
  • Food items referenced: moong, moth, bajra, rice, mixed vegetables, poori.
  • Main temple complex includes 11 Shiv temples and multiple shrines (Ramchandra Ji, Prembhaya, Gayatri Mata, Ganga Mata etc.). Offerings will be across all those.

Timeline on Day

  • Early morning: Abhishek (ritual bath) of deity, then adornment and sari/cloth draping (chaula).
  • Presentation of 56 bhog varieties following.
  • Later in the afternoon/evening: Main prasad distribution, pangat (community meal) begins.
  • Simultaneous community function (Agarwal society): 3 pm student felicitation, 4:30 pm prasad sharing.
  •  
  • Scale of Participation
  • 61 temples in the surrounding area will concurrently host offerings—so logistical outreach is city-wide.
  • More than 500 events are projected in coming days across community groups, temple management committees and development committees.

Expected Crowd & Flow

With nearly 1.75 lakh devotees expected at the main site, plus many thousands more across satellite temples, crowd management, parking, safety, sanitation, and fluid movement of prasad servings become major operational concerns. The scale also means the event has economic implications for nearby vendors and service providers.

Challenges, Community Concerns and Outlook

Logistical Complexity

Organising 41 furnaces and 450 cooks is a massive coordination task: sourcing raw materials, hygiene, cooking operations, serving operations, waste disposal, crowd flow. Any lapse could affect experience and safety.

Advertisement

Accessibility & Inclusion

While the main event at Khole Ke Hanuman Ji temple is grand, organisers must ensure accessibility for differently-abled, elderly, and children. The hillside location may challenge mobility.

Impact on Local Economy & Traffic

Large influxes of devotees may cause traffic congestion around the hill area, parking pressure, impacts on local residents, and increased demand for services. Local stakeholders may expect benefits but also face disruptions.

Advertisement

Sustaining Communal Engagement

Although the festival is framed as a symbol of social unity, sustaining the outreach beyond one day, ensuring equitable participation across castes, communities and neighbourhoods remains a challenge. Organisers must ensure no group feels left out or overwhelmed.

Environmental & Sanitation Factors

Advertisement

Large food production and mass distribution generate waste—food waste, packaging, disposable cutlery, etc. Sustainable waste-management plans are necessary. Also, hillside ecologies might need protection.

In sum, Annakut 2025 at Khole Ke Hanuman Ji is set to be a monumental and meaningful festival, combining awe-inspiring scale with deep cultural resonance. It is not just about the food-offering, but about weaving together faith, community, heritage and social participation.

This year’s event embodies five major power-moves: (1) sheer scale (450+ cooks, 41 furnaces), (2) broad outreach (61+ temples, 500+ associated events), (3) social inclusion (student honours, communal harmony), (4) heritage revival (royal tradition, neighbourhood roles), and (5) operational ambition (catering to ~1.75 lakh devotees).

For Jaipur, and for devotees at Khole Ke Hanuman Ji, this Lakhi Mahotsav becomes a moment of civic-spiritual integration—where the sacred meets the communal, and tradition meets logistics.

Grandparents Day Subodhi Ki Aur celebrated at Subodh Public School-

Published

on

Grandparents Day Subodhi Ki Aur is not just a school event—

Jaipur,Oct.17,2025:Grandparents Day Subodhi Ki Aur is not just a school event—it’s an expression of gratitude toward elders, a reaffirmation of family roots, and a bridge between experience and youth-

“Subodhi Ki Aur” loosely translates to “towards greater wisdom” or “direction toward insight”. The phrase underscores a school’s goal: to instill in students reverence for elders’ wisdom, and to move together in growth and understanding.

Subodh Public School, located in Rambagh Crossing, Jaipur, has been known for emphasizing holistic education—including moral values, cultural awareness, and character building. Celebrating a day specifically for grandparents aligns naturally with its philosophy. (School info: Subodh Public School Rambagh address and setup)

Ceremony Begins

The celebrations opened in heartfelt style-

  • Grandparents arrived to a warm tilak on the forehead and presentation of badges—symbols of honor and respect.
  • A lucky draw selected a pair of grandparents among the attendees, who were then felicitated with a live plant—a gesture signifying growth, life, and blessed continuity.
  • The event was blessed by the presence of Convener Shri Alok Kumar Bumb and Principal Dr. Sanjay Parashar. Their brief remarks acknowledged the priceless role of grandparents in shaping generations.

This warm welcome set the tone: the day was centred on dignity, respect, and heartfelt connection.

Cultural Program

The heart of the Grandparents Day Subodhi Ki Aur celebration was a rich and diverse cultural program, thoughtfully curated by students of all ages-

  • Navkaar Mantra & Bhajans: invoking spiritual calm and collective harmony
  • Dohe & Shayari: ancient couplets and poetic expressions recited with emotion
  • Yogasanas performed by young students—symbolizing health, balance, and vitality
  • Dances & Enactments: dramatizing stories from grandparents’ youth, moral tales, and moments of familial bonding
  • Storytelling by children: personal stories about their grandparents—why they love them, memorable moments

The performances offered more than entertainment—they were living tributes. Many grandparents were visibly moved, some wiping tears as they watched their grandchildren bring stories to life.

Tokens of Love & Mementos

To accompany the emotional experience, the school presented every grandparent with:

  • A decorated diya (lamp), symbolizing light, wisdom, and the guiding presence of elders
  • A photo frame, capturing the moment and to serve as a keepsake

These mementos were small yet deeply meaningful—a way for children to express their affection and leave something tangible in grandparents’ hands.

After the ceremonies, a delicious lunch was served, where generations sat together, conversed, laughed, and shared memories.

Emotional Highlights & Grandparents’ Reaction

Several moments stood out in the celebrations-

  • When children enacted scenes from grandparents’ childhood or earlier times, many elders nodded in recognition or smiled wistfully.
  • The selection of one grandparent couple via lucky draw, and their felicitation, led to a spontaneous standing ovation.
  • The presentation of plant saplings was especially poignant: “May your love grow as this plant does,” one child said, generating applause.
  • After the formal program, many grandparents paused in reflections, greeting not just their own but mingling with other grandparents—sharing stories, viewing performances as equals.

One grandfather remarked: “When I saw my granddaughter dance and narrate a memory I had told her, tears welled up. She gave me back my memories in a fresh way.”

Role of School Leadership & Organizers

The success of Grandparents Day Subodhi Ki Aur owes significantly to the school’s leadership and planning-

  • Convener Shri Alok Kumar Bumb offered guidance and direction for the event’s flow.
  • Principal Dr. Sanjay Parashar delivered the opening speech, highlighting the significance of elders and educational values.
  • Students, teachers, and staff collaborated behind the scenes: logistics, stage management, costume, scripts, audio-visuals and seating.
  • The choice of a lucky draw, plant gifting, symbolic diyas, and photo frames indicates thoughtful design that balanced emotion, respect, and joy.

By maintaining short, well-timed segments and involving grandparents themselves, the program remained engaging rather than exhausting.

Respect, Roots, Future

This event conveys several deeper meanings-

Advertisement
  • Respect for the Past: Grandparents carry the wisdom, history, and cultural memory of families.
  • Roots & Identity: By honouring elders, children are reminded of their roots and continuity.
  • Intergenerational Dialogue: The event fosters understanding—the old learn about modern life; young learn about heritage.
  • Instilling Values: Gratitude, discipline, humility, love across age barriers.
  • Forward Movement (“Subodhi Ki Aur”): With elders’ blessings and guidance, new generations move ahead with grounded values.

Slogans like

“Respect the Past, Embrace the Future”
“Grandparents: Our Roots, Our Strength”
“Love Knows No Age”

echoed these ideals throughout the event.

Comparisons with Grandparents Day Celebrations Elsewhere

While many schools internationally and in India celebrate Grandparents Day, Grandparents Day Subodhi Ki Aur stands out in several ways-

Advertisement
  • It integrates cultural, spiritual, and local heritage elements (dohe, bhajans).
  • It creates physical mementos (diyas, photoframes, plants), not just certificates.
  • It involves grandparents in the event—not only as guests but sometimes as performers or story-tellers.
  • The philosophical label “Subodhi Ki Aur” gives the celebration a layered spiritual aim, beyond festivity.

Elsewhere, similar events might focus solely on fun, crafts, or lunch. This model merges sentiment, values, and education.

How “Subodhi Ki Aur” Strengthens Intergenerational Bonds

Dialogue & Story Exchange

During lunch and informal time, grandparents and grandchildren conversed—sharing life

Shared Performance & Inclusion

Advertisement

Some grandparents may join in enactments, recite dohe, or simply witness from front seats. The inclusion helps blur the generation gap.

Symbolic Acts & Mutual Respect

Planting saplings, giving diyas, and presenting photo frames are symbolic acts showing children’s respect and grandparents’ blessing.

Advertisement

Emotional Memory for Students

Children internalize the care and respect given to elders, learning empathy, gratitude, and lifelong reverence.

The Grandparents Day Subodhi Ki Aur event at Subodh Public School, Rambagh, was more than a school function—it was a celebration of lineage, love, and legacy. It affirmed that elders are not relics of the past, but trustees of wisdom, anchors in a changing world.

Ferrari Tour Rajasthan brings luxury and speed to Jaipur’s streets—

Published

on

Ferrari Tour Rajasthan was more than just a display of exotic automobiles—

Jaipur,Oct.11,225:Ferrari Tour Rajasthan is a luxury auto event held in Jaipur under the banner of promoting auto-tourism. It brings together Ferrari enthusiasts from around the country and abroad, staging a grand rally of Ferraris across the Pink City. The core aims: to celebrate luxury automotive culture, to merge it with Rajasthan’s rich heritage, and to spotlight Jaipur, Udaipur, Jodhpur, and other iconic cities as must-visit destinations for wealthy car lovers-

Spectacular Cars & Price Tags

The fleet did not disappoint. Models like Ferrari 296 GTB, F8 Tributo, and Ferrari Roma stole the show. Their on-road values in Jaipur start at ₹3.76 crore

Advertisement

Estimated valuation of cars in the rally ranged from ₹3.76 crore up to ₹10.50 crore, making many of them moving pieces of art. Audiences were particularly enthusiastic about the Ferrari 296 GTB for its hybrid power and iconic design, the F8 Tributo for its sharp performance, and Roma for its elegance. The sight and sound of these machines weaving through Jaipur’s streets was both a sensory and visual feast.

Heritage Meets Horsepower

What set Ferrari Tour Rajasthan apart was the backdrop—majestic palaces, historic streets, and royal architecture of Jaipur. Participants got to enjoy not just roaring engines, but also the aesthetics of Rajasthan’s heritage, its vibrant colors, grand forts, and royal palaces.

The event was intentionally designed so spectators and car lovers could embrace Rajasthan’s legacy: the Rajput architecture, the marketplaces, the crafts, the food—all while viewing modern marvels of automotive engineering. It wasn’t just about speed; it was about sense of place.

Advertisement

Mumbai → Jaipur → Udaipur → Jodhpur

The tour didn’t start in Jaipur. The convoy made its way from Mumbai, collecting Ferraris and enthusiasts along the route, before arriving in Jaipur. From Jaipur, the plan is to proceed through Udaipur and Jodhpur, weaving through Rajasthan’s most famed cities. This path not only highlights stunning locales, but allows luxury travellers to experience different cultural and architectural environments.

Why Ferrari Tour Rajasthan Matters for Tourism

  • Boosting Auto-Tourism: Events like these draw wealthy visitors, enthusiasts, social media attention—all of which put a spotlight on local hospitality, hotels, roads, food, and crafts.
  • Heritage & Culture Exposure: Showcasing Jaipur’s splendour, its forts, palaces, architecture, and Rajasthan’s legendary hospitality helps in presenting the state as more than just a historical destination—it’s a canvas where modern luxury meets tradition.
  • Economic Opportunities: Luxury car events stimulate high-end spending—on accommodations, dining, services, and local businesses ranging from artisans to event planners.
  • Global Visibility: Such events tend to go viral online, with video, photos, posts shared globally, raising Rajasthan’s visibility in luxury and travel circuits.

Voices from the Event & Social Media Impact

Ferrari India’s team released video snippets showing the convoy cruising through Jaipur with grand fanfare. They posted-

“फरारी प्रेमियों का परिवार एक बार फिर एकजुट हुआ है… मारानेलो का दौड़ता हुआ घोड़ा अब भारत की शान और विरासत के बीच अपनी रफ्तार से गरिमा और गौरव की कहानी लिखेगा।”

(Translation: The Ferrari lovers’ family is united once again… the galloping horse of Maranello will now write a story of dignity & pride between India’s honor and its heritage.)

Advertisement

Social media users in Jaipur reacted with excitement. Many lined up along Rambagh and other landmarks to catch a glimpse. Cars like the 296 GTB and Roma became instant stars of video reels and Instagram stories. People commented on the contrast of Italian engineering against the ochre-pink tones of Jaipur.

Challenges, Safety & Environmental Concerns

While the event was undoubtedly grand, there are some areas worth scrutiny-

  • Road Conditions & Traffic Management: Handling traffic in historic city areas can be difficult, especially with large, powerful cars.
  • Noise & Emissions: Supercars are loud and often less efficient in fuel consumption; in a densely populated heritage city, that can raise concerns among citizens.
  • Safety: High speeds and powerful engines bring risk. Adequate safety measures—route planning, medical backup, police escort—are essential.
  • Equity & Perception: Events focused on ultra-luxury may feel distant from the everyday lives of many residents; balancing spectacle with sensitivity is important.

The Road Ahead

What can be expected next from Ferrari Tour Rajasthan

  • More frequent auto-tours, perhaps including electric supercars to align with global sustainability trends.
  • Inclusion of more cities in Rajasthan and neighbouring states, building broader circuits.
  • Greater integration with local culture—food festivals, artisan fairs, accommodation in heritage properties (havelis, palaces).
  • Improved infrastructure, better roads, safer driving routes, clearer conservation rules around historic areas to ensure heritage sites aren’t adversely affected.

Ferrari Tour Rajasthan was more than just a display of exotic automobiles—it represented a fusion of luxury, heritage, tourism, and culture. As the engines settle and the Ferraris roll on to Udaipur and beyond, Jaipur remains a vivid testament to what happens when tradition and speed meet: dramatic stories, elevated experiences, and a new chapter for auto-tourism in Rajasthan.

The Cleanliness Drive for Swachh Bharat at DAV Jaipur

Jaipur,Oct.08,2025:The Cleanliness Drive for Swachh Bharat at DAV Jaipur was conducted with great enthusiasm on 1 October 2025 at DAV Centenary Public School, Jaipur, under the banner of the Swachhta Pakhwada Campaign initiated by CBSE. The event aimed to promote environmental awareness, hygiene, and cleanliness among students — values that form the foundation of the Swachh Bharat Abhiyan envisioned by Prime Minister Narendra Modi

The school transformed into a hub of cleanliness-driven activities, where students learned the importance of responsibility toward their surroundings and pledged to contribute to a Clean India – Green India.

A Vision of Clean India

The Swachhta Pakhwada is a two-week cleanliness campaign launched by the Government of India as part of the nationwide Swachh Bharat Mission, encouraging citizens, institutions, and communities to actively participate in cleaning their surroundings.

Under this initiative, schools play a pivotal role in instilling lifelong cleanliness habits among children — the future custodians of the planet. The Cleanliness Drive for Swachh Bharat at DAV Jaipur exemplified this mission through hands-on activities and awareness-building efforts.

Launch of the Cleanliness Drive

The day began with an assembly dedicated to Swachhta Pakhwada, setting a tone of unity and enthusiasm. Students, teachers, and staff gathered to mark the beginning of the Cleanliness Drive for Swachh Bharat at DAV Jaipur.

Under the guidance of Principal Shri A.K. Sharma, the assembly included motivational speeches, a cleanliness pledge, and songs dedicated to environmental protection. The atmosphere was vibrant with patriotic energy and the spirit of collective responsibility.

Building Habits That Last a Lifetime

In his address, Principal Shri A.K. Sharma emphasized the crucial role of cleanliness in health, personal discipline, and environmental sustainability. He urged students to adopt cleanliness as a way of life, not merely as a campaign.

He said,

“Clean surroundings reflect a clean mind. Every small act of responsibility — picking up litter, reducing plastic use, or segregating waste — contributes to the greater mission of nation-building.”

He also highlighted Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s vision behind the Swachh Bharat Abhiyan, encouraging everyone to turn cleanliness into a community movement rather than a one-time event.

Student Participation- Leading by Example

The heart of the Cleanliness Drive for Swachh Bharat at DAV Jaipur was the enthusiastic participation of students across all classes. They took an oath to keep their surroundings clean, reduce plastic waste, and encourage others to follow eco-friendly habits.

Students were also educated about the hazards of plastic use, the importance of biodegradable waste segregation, and the need for sustainable living. The pledge ceremony inspired everyone to see cleanliness as an act of respect — for nature, for others, and for the nation.

The competition, titled “Technovation”, provided a dynamic platform for students to explore the evolving relationship between artificial intelligence and ethical innovation

With participants from several leading Jaipur schools, the event served as a reminder that the future of technology lies not merely in code, but in conscious creation — where innovation meets integrity.

The Vision Behind Technovation

Technovation has always been a hallmark of Subodh Public School’s commitment to holistic learning. The idea is simple yet transformative — to bridge the gap between theory and practice, empowering students to bring their classroom knowledge into real-world application.

This year’s edition was particularly special, as it emphasized ethical awareness in technological growth. The AI and Ethics Interschool Competition 2025 aimed to encourage young minds to question, innovate, and act responsibly in an age where artificial intelligence increasingly influences human life.

The Theme- “AI and Ethics”

The choice of theme — AI and Ethics — couldn’t have been more relevant. With AI tools becoming central to education, creativity, healthcare, and even law, the question is no longer what AI can do, but what it should do.

Students explored topics such as-

  • Data privacy and bias in machine learning
  • The role of ethics in automated decision-making
  • Responsible use of AI tools in daily life

Through engaging formats, they demonstrated how technology can enhance society only when guided by moral intelligence.

External Insight
UNESCO’s 2021 Recommendation on the Ethics of Artificial Intelligence emphasizes that “AI systems must be designed with human rights at their core.” Events like Tech novation echo this global mission at the grassroots level.

Chief Guest and Judges Who Inspired the Students

The presence of Dr. Subodh Agarwal, IAS, as the Chief Guest, elevated the event’s prestige. A visionary leader known for his contributions to governance and innovation, Dr. Agarwal commended the students’ creativity and their thoughtful engagement with AI ethics.

  • Ms. Shrishti Bhardwaj – a communications and digital media expert

Their insightful feedback helped participants understand not just how to innovate, but also why ethics must guide technology.

Bot-O-Mania

In this high-energy robotics challenge, students designed bots capable of performing specific tasks using intelligent algorithms. Teams showcased automation solutions that could make daily tasks easier and more efficient, all while maintaining ethical parameters like safety and data integrity.

The participants demonstrated how robotics can blend creativity and conscience — a perfect reflection of Tech novation’s vision.

“Future of AI – A Promise or a Peril”

The debate session was a lively exchange of ideas, where young minds critically discussed whether AI will empower or endanger humanity. Speakers brought forward diverse perspectives — from AI as a tool for inclusive progress to concerns about autonomy, bias, and accountability.

Winners:-

  1. Cambridge Court World School – 1st Position
  2. Cambridge Court High School – 2nd Position
  3. Tagore International School – 3rd Position

The debate reaffirmed that the ethical discourse around AI must start early — in classrooms, competitions, and communities.

This creative segment allowed participants to convey powerful messages through visual storytelling. Students illustrated how AI, if used wisely, can make life better — but if misused, can lead to serious consequences.

Insights from Dr. Subodh Agarwal’s Speech

Dr. Agarwal’s concluding remarks left a lasting impression. He reminded students that technology should empower humanity, not replace it. “AI must serve human welfare,” he said, “and that’s possible only when we blend innovation with values.”

He further emphasized:

Advertisement
  • The importance of data responsibility
  • The need for interdisciplinary learning
  • The role of young innovators in shaping ethical AI futures

His words resonated deeply with both students and educators, underlining that ethics isn’t a limitation but a guiding compass for innovation.

Why Events Like Technovation Matter

Competitions like the AI and Ethics Interschool Competition 2025 are crucial in preparing students for a world where digital literacy and ethical awareness go hand in hand. Such events:

  • Promote hands-on learning through creativity
  • Instill a sense of moral responsibility in tech development
  • Encourage collaboration between schools and experts
  • Help bridge the education-industry gap

In today’s AI-driven world, nurturing critical thinkers and ethical coders is the need of the hour — and Subodh Public School is leading by example.

A Growing Educational Priority

Globally, educational boards are increasingly integrating AI ethics into their curricula. India too has taken major steps — the CBSE’s Artificial Intelligence curriculum, launched in collaboration with IBM and NITI Aayog, includes modules on ethical AI and social responsibility.

Subodh Public School’s Technovation event reflects this same educational evolution — where schools move beyond textbooks to train ethical innovators for the future.
