This moment is both humbling and deeply meaningful.â
Rana remembered political stalwart Late Shri Devender Singh Rana Ji and his long-standing association with the institution. âRana Sahib visited this school on several occasions as Chief Guest on several events and as a parent to a Heritagean, holding the institute in the highest regard.

Speaking directly to the students, Rana offered a message rooted in hard work and perseverance in the pursuit of excellence. âYou are the future leaders, creators, thinkers and change makers of our nation. Your accomplishments today should make your families proud, but they should also inspire those around you. True success is not measured only by accolades. It is measured by the example you set and the lives you uplift. Excellence grows out of discipline, humility and a commitment to doing what is right, even when no one is watching.â
She encouraged the students to remain grounded in their values, to pursue their goals with laser-focus and to approach the world with compassion. âAs you move forward, let your character be your compass and let your effort reflect the promise within you,â she said.
