In a landmark move to revolutionize the state’s educational system, the Himachal Pradesh government formalized its partnership with the Piramal Foundation by signing a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU). This collaboration is set to align with the vision of the National Education Policy (NEP) 2020, focusing on fostering 21st-century skills, strengthening leadership, and enabling systemic change.

At its core, the initiative aims to cultivate Social, Emotional, and Ethical Learning (SEEL) among the students of HP, paving the way for a future-ready and compassionate generation of learners. Piramal Foundation and the Himachal Pradesh government had signed a Letter of Intent earlier in May 2024 and have now formalized their commitment by signing a 5-year MoU.

The SEE Learning Program developed at the Compassion Centre, at Emory University, USA, was implemented in India through a partnership between Piramal Foundation and Emory University in 2019. This program enables students to strengthen themselves from within through a scientifically robust curriculum that teaches Compassion in the same way as one would teach Geography and Mathematics.

Over the past five years, Piramal Foundation has successfully implemented the SEE Learning program in 6 states across 100,000+ schools across India.

“Every child deserves the opportunity to grow into a good human being, but achieving this is no simple task. It requires a well-structured system to instill these values in our schools. And SEE Learning is perhaps the only solution that we can see. We were genuinely excited when this idea was first introduced. I see this as a valuable opportunity, and we are committed to making the most of it to ensure that every child in Himachal Pradesh benefits from this program,” said Shri Rakesh Kanwar, Secretary of Education, Government of Himachal Pradesh.

“This MoU holds great significance not just for the Piramal Foundation and the Government of Himachal Pradesh but, most importantly, for the children of Himachal Pradesh. Through this partnership, they will gain access to Social, Emotional, and Ethical Learning (SEEL). At Piramal Foundation, we are committed to ensuring that SEEL reaches every child, in every classroom, leaving no one behind,” said Saurabh Johri, Co-founder & Director, SOESC, Piramal School of Leadership.

“Integrating Social, Emotional, and Ethical Learning (SEE Learning) within education is essential for shaping a society rooted in compassion and strength. We are committed to embedding these transformative principles into the heart of India’s school system, nurturing academic growth along with empathy, ethical values, and emotional resilience among students. I believe this partnership with the Himachal Pradesh government is a significant step towards integrating SEE Learning into the state’s educational framework and paving the way for a more inclusive, compassionate, and future-ready education system for students across the region,”Monal Jayaram, Co-founder & Director, SOESC, Piramal School of Leadership.

“The critical need for compassionate education has never been more relevant, and we are taking this forward through SEE Learning. We deeply appreciate the profound support of Piramal Foundation in this endeavour,” said Dr. Lobsang Tenzin Negi, Executive Director, the Center for Contemplative Science and Compassion-Based Ethics, Emory University.

Other distinguished dignitaries present at the occasion included: Mr. Chhime Regzing Chhoekyapa, Senior Secretary at Office of the His Holiness Dalai Lama; Ms. Anshu Dubey and Mr. Ghanshyam Soni, Core Team Members, Piramal School of Leadership (PSL); Ms. Seema Verma, Coordinator, SPD Office, Samagra Shiksha; Ms. Maulshree Kalothia, Program Director, PSL; and Mr. Rajender Kumar, Program Manager, PSL.

This partnership between Piramal School of Leadership and the Himachal Pradesh Government marks a significant step towards creating a more equitable, innovative, and impactful education system.

Surya Sarees, Delhi’s renowned ethnic fashion house, celebrates World Saree Day 2024 with grandeur, grace, and an unwavering commitment to India’s sartorial heritage.

Surya Sarees Celebrates World Saree Day 2024

The saree, an enduring symbol of elegance and craftsmanship, reflects centuries of artistry, woven into threads of tradition. Whether it’s the vibrancy of red symbolizing celebration or the purity of white speaking of grace, it is not just a garment but a legacy passed down to women of yesterday, today, and tomorrow. As proud custodians of this timeless art, Surya Sarees continues to champion the beauty and legacy of the saree in its signature style.

Rekindling Tradition in a Modern World
In an era where Western fashion dominates wardrobes, the artistry of sarees and their creators often risks being forgotten. From deep blues to festive yellows, Surya Sarees takes this responsibility to heart, striving to keep the magic of Indian craftsmanship alive and inspiring younger generations to embrace the saree in their own unique ways.

“It is our honour to showcase the splendour of sarees and ensure their place in contemporary fashion. Each saree tells a story, and we want every woman to experience this heritage,” said Mr. Raghav Mittal, COO of Surya Sarees.

The Grand Celebration
To mark this significant day, Surya Sarees is hosting an exclusive showcase featuring a curated collection of their handpicked sarees-masterpieces that blend classic traditions with contemporary designs. The invite-only event promises an immersive experience, featuring:

• Saree Styling Sessions: Experts from Surya Sarees will guide attendees on ways to style sarees for every occasion-traditional or modern.

• Saree Draping Workshop: Led by Jesi from Chennai, a renowned saree drapist, the session will unravel the art of flawless draping, highlighting the beauty of each fabric.

A Legacy of Craftsmanship
The sarees showcased are treasures of India’s rich textile heritage, encompassing both handloom and embroidered wonders:

• Handloom Sarees: Banarasi (Varanasi’s golden weave), Kanjeevaram (Tamil Nadu’s silk marvel), Bandhej (Gujarat’s tie-dye art), Patan Patola (double ikat royalty), and Bhagalpur Tussar silks-each a masterpiece rooted in history.

• Embroidered Classics: Kashmiri Tila work, Lucknowi Chikankari, Dabka Zardozi, and Parsi Gara-each thread is a testimony to intricate craftsmanship and tradition.

From the shimmering gold threads of a Kanjeevaram to the soft pink tones of a Lucknowi Chikankari, every creation at Surya Sarees reflects unparalleled artistry. Whether it’s the Kashmiri embroidery that mirrors the green beauty of the valley or the subtle orange hues of Gujarat’s Bandhej, these sarees pay homage to the artisans who keep these traditions alive.

A Commitment to Elegance
Surya Sarees stands as a beacon of India’s cultural heritage, ensuring the saree remains a cherished symbol of grace. On World Saree Day 2024, the fashion house invites saree lovers to celebrate not just a garment but the stories, skills, and timeless beauty woven into every fold.

For Surya Sarees, World Saree Day isn’t just a celebration-it’s a pledge to honor the legacy of Indian craftsmanship and inspire every woman to drape herself in tradition, with flair, elan, and pride.
