LPU Students reminisce 70th Miss Universe Harnaaz Sandhu’s two gracious Ramp-Walks at Campus Stage

Jalandhar: All students and staff members at Lovely Professional University (LPU), especially those of the School of Fashion, are recollecting 70th Miss Universe Harnaaz Sandhu’s gracious ramp-walks and encouraging speech made at the campus stage during her two visits.

Miss Universe Harnaaz Sandhu was at LPU Campus as Miss India (Punjab) in October2019 for judging ‘Campus Princess’ event; and, as Miss Diva in early February 2020 for selecting Ms & Mr at ‘Youth Vibe-2020’ mega event of LPU. On her first visit at LPU Harnaaz had judged 150 + participants from across the zone.

Forwarding best wishes to Ms Sandhu , LPU Chancellor Mr Ashok Mittal shared: “It is a moment of pride as after a wait of 21 years Miss Universe title is won by an Indian once again. We further feel elated that our students got the chance to walk the ramp along with Ms Sandhu, and also got to hear the sheer grit of Ms Sandhu. Her winning the title is a testimony that India has one of the best combinations of beauty and brain. On behalf of all at LPU, we congratulate Harnaaz Sandhu for her hard work in winning the coveted title and making us and the country proud of her glittering global win.”

Nazia, a third-year student of LPU Fashion School, while recollecting memories of Ms Sandhu’s visit to campus mentioned: “Sandhu had a spark in her eyes. She was so friendly to all of us and shared her experiences from the modelling world.” Other students shared that Harnaaz then also guided students to be always true self; identify passion and weakness alike; and, don’t let weaknesses dwarf passion. Everything is possible if only one believes in oneself. Overpower flaws and avail opportunities as these come.
