The day began with a lively procession featuring music and colourful banners. Eleven students from Treasures of Innocence, dressed as Swami Vivekananda, led the march, embodying the youth’s role in carrying forward his legacy. The procession included visually impaired participants whose determination inspired onlookers, as well as energetic dance performances by students. A standout moment was a heartfelt dance by Dancers’ Guild to the song “Bhengecho duwar esecho jyotirmoy,” which deeply moved the audience.
Prominent dignitaries graced the event and delivered impactful speeches on the contemporary relevance of Swami Vivekananda’s teachings. Among them were Swami Adipurushananda, Assistant Secretary of The Ramakrishna Mission Institute of Culture, Golpark; Dr. Andrew Fleming, British Deputy High Commissioner to East & North East India; Prof. Dr. Saikat Maitra, Former Vice Chancellor, MAKAUT. Their addresses emphasised education, empowerment, and spiritual growth as cornerstones of Swami Vivekananda’s philosophy.
The celebration also included a felicitation ceremony to honour the esteemed guests and an engaging cultural program. Key partners such as Jivagram, Friends FM, Mio Amore, Tribeca Care, Banchbo Healing Touch Foundation, Dignity Foundation and Ramaesis played pivotal roles in ensuring the event’s success.
The event culminated in a solemn community walk to the Vivekananda Statue near FD Park, where participants paid homage with a garlanding ceremony. Jagriti Dham, luxurious old age home in kolkata, extended its gratitude with a vote of thanks and distributed goodie bags and refreshments, leaving participants with a sense of fulfillment and inspiration. Mr. Aninda Das, Vice President Marketing, Infinity Group, remarked, “Swami Vivekananda’s teachings inspire us to create a more inclusive and empowered society. This celebration is our humble attempt to honour his legacy and remind everyone of the power of unity and service.”
