Honoring teachers for their selfless efforts in shaping the lives of students always shows deep respect for them. Keeping this in mind, DAV College Jalandhar organized a grand ceremony of *1st SAWC Education Legacy Award 2023* on the occasion of Teachers Day at its campus. The main objective of this award function was to honor the teachers who have made glorious and outstanding contributions in the field of education and have achieved prestigious achievements. At the event, 37 teachers of the college were honored for their dedication, passion, honesty, innovative teaching methods, advancement of knowledge and unwavering commitment towards professional development of the students.

The SAWC Education Legacy Awards 2023 was the first awards ceremony in an awards series initiated by the College’s Student Council. The chief guest of the awards ceremony was Raghav Jyoti, son of former Jalandhar mayor Sunil Jyoti and director of Trivede Industries. The award ceremony started with the welcome of the college principal and all the awardee teachers and the DAV anthem.

In the award ceremony, the Principal of the college, Dr. Rajesh Kumar, was first honored with the Award of Honor for his outstanding professional achievement and inspiring social contribution. This honor was given to him by Vice Principal Prof. Archana, Registrar Prof. Kunwar Deepak, Local Advisory Committee members Dr. Kunwar Rajeev, Dr. Naveen Sood, Dean of Student Council Prof. Manish Khanna and Staff Secretary Dr. Sanjeev Dhawan.

Principal Dr. Rajesh Kumar thanked everyone for the honor and expressed his happiness saying that every teacher plays an important role in shaping the lives of his students. They not only impart knowledge and intelligence to their students but also nurture the talent and aspirations of the young minds. Teachers’ patience, compassion and commitment to their profession make them guiding lights in shaping the future of our nation. The Principal said, as the Principal of this prestigious institution, I feel extremely honored and privileged to reward such dedicated and inspiring teachers.
