Id-Ul- Fitr Celebration

Festivals are important as they help individuals to understand their roots and keep the community integrated. Longowal Group of Colleges, Derabassi lays emphasis on celebrating different festivals to develop an understanding of the values of each important festival and to bring about a feeling of oneness and tolerance to help students coexist in a mixed environment and learn from each other.

With these thoughts, the pious festival of Eid-Ul- Fitr was celebrated with grandeur and joy on 10-April-2024 in Longowal Group of Colleges. The celebration started with an inspirational thought which highlighted the importance of the power of faith. It was followed by rendering of beautiful songs and dance performances. One of the students recited a poem on Eid which reaffirmed our faith in humanity and equality.

The students created an aura of the festivity in their beautiful attires. They joyously participated in competitions of Mehndi and Poster Making. They also showed their culinary skills by preparing variety of dishes in Cooking competition. There was also a soulful presentation of Naat by students, thanking God for his endless blessings that he has bestowed upon us.

Principal Dr. Rosy Katyal in her address said that we all should be proud of our country India, which has so many colours and so many festivals to cherish and the celebration of Eid is an endeavor to inculcate in the children the true spirit of religious tolerance and secularism.
