On the occasion of Azadi Ka Amrit Mahotsav, the Faculty of Management Studies - Institute of Rural Management (FMS-IRM) proudly organized the patriotic programme ‘Harr Ghar Tiranga’. Spearheaded by the ‘Rural Immersion Club,’ the event resonated with themes of unity, sacrifice, and patriotism. The day’s highlight was a powerful Nukkad Natak titled ‘Reliving the Wounds of Partition,’ followed by a stirring Tiranga Yatra around Thadi Market, Mansarovar.

Reliving the Wounds of Partition: A Soul-Stirring Nukkad Natak
The Nukkad Natak ‘Reliving the Wounds of Partition’ was a poignant and thought-provoking theatrical performance that delved into the tragic events of 1947. Presented by the talented members of the Rural Immersion Club, the play paid homage to the countless lives impacted by the partition of India. Through their vivid and heart-wrenching portrayal of the mass migration, division of families, and the pain endured by the elderly and children, the performers brought this dark chapter of history to life. The emotionally charged performance struck a deep chord with the audience. Spectators were moved to tears as they witnessed scenes of families torn apart, children uprooted from their homes, and the struggles faced by those who were displaced. The play served as a stark reminder of the sacrifices made during the partition and emphasized the importance of preserving unity and harmony in today’s world. One of the attendees shared, “The performance was incredibly impactful. It not only reminded us of the pain of partition but also reinforced the value of our hard-earned freedom. We should never take it for granted.”

Celebrating Freedom with the Tiranga Yatra
Following the Nukkad Natak, the patriotic fervor continued with a grand ‘Tiranga Yatra’ around Thadi Market, Mansarovar. Students, faculty members, and volunteers came together to participate in this vibrant march, carrying the tricolor with pride and distributing flags to the public. The Yatra symbolized unity, patriotism, and the shared pride of being part of a free and independent India. As the participants walked through the bustling streets of Mansarovar, chants of “Bharat Mata Ki Jai” and “Vande Mataram” filled the air, creating an atmosphere of national pride. The distribution of flags added a personal touch, encouraging citizens to display the Tiranga at their homes and workplaces as a mark of respect for the nation. The Tiranga Yatra also served as an opportunity to connect with the local community, spreading awareness about the significance of the Azadi Ka Amrit Mahotsav and the values it upholds.
