Dinesh Gundu Rao, addressed the gathering and appreciated the growth and contributions of Bearys Academy of Learning in the field of education.

Syed Mohammed Beary, Founder and Chairman of Bearys Academy of Learning, chaired the event and addressed the gathering.
Speaking on the occasion, he said he considered himself blessed in many ways, but if he had to highlight one aspect he was most grateful for, it would be the opportunity to impart education and knowledge.
He emphasized that education goes beyond acquiring degrees and that everyone has a role to play in contributing to the progress of society and the nation through education.
Highlighting the role of technology in academics, he noted that passing examinations has become easier, but what truly matters is passing the examination of life, which requires resilience and values.
Expressing concern over the mindset of the younger generation, he pointed out that endurance and patience seem to be lacking. He added that many young people expect things to happen as per their wishes, and when they face challenges, they struggle to cope, leading to a rise in suicides.
He stressed the importance of teachers showing empathy and understanding towards students. He also urged both parents and teachers to respect children, stating that this approach would help build confidence in them.
Dr. Meena Monteiro, Dean of the School of Social Work at Roshni Nilaya, Mangalore, addressed the gathering and spoke about the importance of positive parenting in the present times.
She emphasized that parents should create a nurturing environment for children by keeping violence and anger away from their sight, as constant exposure to negativity can impact their emotional well-being.
Highlighting the importance of encouragement, she urged parents to appreciate even the smallest achievements of their children. She said that recognizing their efforts, no matter how minor, helps boost their confidence and self-worth.
She also stressed the need to prepare children to face failures, stating that setbacks are a natural part of life. She encouraged parents to guide children in handling disappointments constructively rather than shielding them from difficulties.
Dr. Monteiro further advised against fear-based parenting methods, stating that using threats or intimidation to discipline children can have long-term negative effects. Instead, she advocated for a supportive approach that fosters open communication and trust between parents and children.
Shayaan of class X proposed the vote of thanks, while KM Gulfam and Abbu Aniq Ali compered the event.
