Macro Vision Academy (MVA), Burhanpur, marked Independence Day with a special multilingual musical tribute celebrating India’s linguistic and cultural diversity.

The highlight was ‘Vande Mataram Beyond Borders’, a rendition of India’s National Song in eight languages to commemorate its 150th anniversary.

Internationally acclaimed multilingual singer and Guinness World Record holder Suchetha Satish, who has performed in more than 155 languages, captivated students with her performances. She also responded to students’ requests by singing songs in various Indian languages.

Anand Prakash Chouksey, Founder and Chairman of Macro Vision Academy, said the initiative aimed to help students experience India’s diversity and understand how the country’s many languages and cultures strengthen national unity.

Suchetha said music demonstrates how different languages can express universal emotions. She hoped the performance would help students develop a deeper appreciation of India’s linguistic and cultural richness.

The programme brought together music, patriotism, diversity and national unity, offering students an experiential celebration of the spirit of ‘Ek Bharat, Shreshtha Bharat’.

“Technology must not merely serve industry; it must serve nation-building. The defining measure of excellence should be not simply how high an IIT rises, but how much of Bharat rises with it. The IIT of 2047 must be a university without intellectual walls, a national research engine, an innovation foundry, an entrepreneurship platform, a teacher multiplier, a technological living laboratory, a global knowledge node and a public institution accountable to society. Its success must be judged by how many teachers, institutions and communities become stronger because it chose to share its knowledge, infrastructure and opportunities.”

“Education is not just a process of formal skilling for employment, it is also the process through which a citizenry is created. We become voters after being students. Our claim to be a democracy, and even the mother of democracy, appears hollow when our students are denied their rights to unionise and be represented in the administration of higher education institutions. Critical thinking and freedom of expression, which are pillars of academia, cannot be limited to the classroom. An elected student body enables authorities to have a meaningful conversation with legitimate representatives of students. Students are demanding a voice, in their educational institutions to begin with, and in the uppermost echelons of politics if need be.”

- Kanhaiya Kumar, The Indian Express, (13/8)
