PAU INSPIRE CLUB CONSTITUTED FOR STUDENTS

Ludhiana, July 20, 2023: In order to spread positivity and uplift the self confidence of the University students, PAU Inspire Club has been constituted by the Directorate of Students’ Welfare, Punjab Agricultural University (PAU). In this regard, a meeting of the executive body of the club and students of the University was held under the chairmanship of Dr Nirmal Singh Jaura, Director Students’ Welfare. Dr Charanjit Singh Aulakh, President of PAU Inspire Club; Dr Rupinder Kaur and Dr Gagandeep Kaur, members of the club committee; and Mr Gurpreet Singh Virk, Secretary of the club, also attended the meet.

In his remarks, Dr Jaura said that it has been realized that many of the good students never come forward to participate in student related activities due to stage fear or other complex developed in their minds. “The PAU Inspire Club will focus on breaking those barriers and encouraging all such students to come forward and explore the opportunities of self development. The activities of this club will be kept non-competitive so that the students can participate without having the pressure of winning or losing on their minds,” he added.

Dr Aulakh, while interacting with the students, said that they should be able to differentiate between positive and negative peer pressure, and focus on their overall development. Positive peer pressure always motivates the students to excel in their endeavours, he observed.

Dr Rupinder Kaur encouraged the students to identify their potential and grab all the opportunities of development that are available for them.

Citing examples from her personal experience, Dr Gagandeep Kaur asked the students to build an urge of exploring new things as it will help them to learn many new things on daily basis.

Students of all the constituent colleges of the University were present in the meeting. After a session of healthy discussion, an event “Mera Supna - Meri Udaan” “My Dream - My Flight” was planned by the PAU Inspire Club. A total of 12 students agreed to speak on this topic and motivate the audience; they will share their journey of pursuing their dreams and also tell about facing and overcoming the challenges in their path. Non-competitive activities for motivating the university students will be organized by the PAU Inspire Club on regular basis.
