Mangaluru: The Bearys Public School’s annual day event and His Grace Montessori’s silver jubilee celebrations themed ‘Glorious India’ and ‘Adventurous World’ were held in the city’s Town Hall on Friday.

Syed Muhammad Beary, the Chairman and Managing Trustee of Bearys Academy of Learning, presided over the event while Mangaluru City Police Commissioner, N Shashikumar was present as the Chief Guest.

Addressing the gathering, the city's top-cop said it was a visionary thinking that established an educational institution about 116 years ago, even before Mahatma Gandhi began his freedom struggle.

"Its amazing how the founders of this group realized the importance of education and initiated what was needed to be done," the commissioner added.

He also stressed upon the importance of a mother's role in the upbringing and shaping of the characters of childred.

"The mothers should teach their kids the importance of time right from the beginning, and then they should be taught hardwork and importance of efforts." He said.

"Moral values should not just be taught in schools, but also in the home. Children should become our wealth. We should always dedicate time for the sake of our children’s future” he further added.

“Children are likely to go astray if they are neglected without being imparted with a good education. We should always possess the self-awareness and consciousness that we will be the ones to suffer the appropriate punishment if that happens”, he said.

“Among the students who studied at the Bearys Educational Institutions, there may be many people in the society who are successful in various fields. They must be recognized and honoured during the programs held in the future”, he suggested.

Muneera Akhtar, the founder member of Montessori United, participated in the event as a guest. Principal Khatijatul Khubra and the headmistress of the school Christine Khan were present during the occasion. Amna Akmal delivered the welcome address and Muhammed Jufnan greeted the gathering.

Lucknow (PTI): Kolkata Knight Riders edged Lucknow Super Giants via Super Overs in a battle between two bottom-placed teams in the IPL, here on Sunday.

Chasing a modest 156, LSG suffered a batting collapse and managed to tie the contest and take it to Super Over with No. 9 Mohammed Shami striking a last-ball six against a wayward Kartik Tyagi, who leaked 16 runs in the final over.

But Sunil Narine bowled a stunning Super Over conceding just one run and taking two wickets to give KKR an easy target.

Rinku Singh then finished the chase with a boundary off first ball from Prince Yadav.

Earlier the KKR were in deep trouble with 93/7 in 15 overs but Rinku smashed a sensational 83 not out from 51 balls including four sixes in a row in the final over to lift them to 155/7.

Cameron Green (34) was the only other batter to reach double-digit scores as KKR suffered a familiar batting meltdown with Mohsin taking his maiden fifer.

In reply, LSG continued their dismal show with the bat to succumb to their fifth loss in a row.

Brief Scores:

Kolkata Knight Riders 155/7; 20 overs (Rinku Singh 83 not out, Cameron Green 34; Mohsin Khan 5/23). Lucknow Super Giants 155/8; 20 overs (Rishabh Pant 42). KKR won via Super Over.
