Lucknow University: Feet on ground, eye on sky
Winning a varsity’s top honour is delightful. Winning that honour as your alma mater enters its centenary year is simply historic.
“If an individual spends only Rs 25-100, he or she can educate an underprivileged child. All one needs is faith. I believed I could do it. So, did my peers. Together, we have made a difference. And today, I sit here basking in the glory of a coveted medal,” said Durgesh, an MA topper in defence studies.
For Vibhu, who won the Chakravarti medal, working passionately for what you believe in is the key to success. “I am not much of a planner for the future. I live in the present. I enjoy each day as it comes. I spearhead awareness campaigns with the same belief. My mantra has worked for me,” said the aspiring human rights lawyer.
Shambhavi Pandey, Muskan Tripathi, Charu Bajaj, Mansi Bajpai, Bhavna Kanaujia, Palak Gupta, Ram Sumer, Shweta Maurya, Shivashish Mishra and Pragati Srivastava who won the Chancellor’s Bronze were no less elated. They posed with their medals for the camera.
Selfies and hugs remained the order of the day as achievers documented their success both offline and online.
