The programme was graced by Mr. Faiz Tayyab, Project Head (NTPC Darlipali), as the Chief Guest, and Mrs. Tazeen Javed, President, Abhilasha Ladies Club, as the Guest of Honour. Also present on the occasion were Mr. Sanjeet Kumar Minj, Head of Human Resources (NTPC Darlipali); Mr. Naveen Amitabh Bakhla, AGM (HR), NTPC Dulanga; and several distinguished personalities from Sundargarh district. The Principal of the school, Mrs. Unnati Joshi Raut, formally welcomed the guests.

The concept of the programme was highly engaging and creative. Through the imaginative journey of a foreign tourist visiting India, the rich cultural diversity and unique features of various Indian states were beautifully showcased. Each state was represented through its distinctive folk dances, traditional attire, cultural heritage, and customs. Guides representing different states appeared on stage, introducing the foreign guest to the specialties of their respective regions in their own unique styles, making the entire presentation both informative and captivating for the audience.
The folk dances, classical performances, and cultural tableaux presented by the students vividly brought to life the spirit of “Unity in Diversity.” The auditorium resonated with thunderous applause throughout the programme. All the guests, parents, and dignitaries wholeheartedly appreciated the students’ talent, the teachers’ guidance, and the grandeur of the event. Through this Annual Function, the school effectively promoted quality education, cultural preservation, equality, inclusivity, and partnership, thereby contributing meaningfully to the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
Principal Mrs. Unnati Joshi Raut presented the school’s annual report and, while wishing the students a bright future, expressed her gratitude to the CES and NTPC officials for their continued support. The Chief Guest praised the cultural performances immensely, congratulated the students, teachers, and organizing committee for the successful event, and honoured the students who excelled in academic and co-curricular activities during the 2024–25 session with Meritorious Excellence Awards and Special Talent Awards.
The Annual Function concluded with the singing of the National Anthem.
