"It's our way to express our gratitude to our forces," affirmed Dr Devendra Tripathi, regional secretary of the institute.

He further elaborated, stating, "The aim of the camp was to pay tribute to all our soldiers who put their lives at stake for us. Consequently, trained and budding painters along with the sculptors offered tribute in their own unique way, making a small yet profound contribution in service to our country through their creative work."

Illustrating this spirit, Vineet Pandey, in his painting, brought alive a soldier—an Indian daughter—on the canvas. Similarly, painter Ishwar Chandra depicted the indelible contribution of the army and their heroic sagas. Siddharth, for his part, painted Colonel Sophia Qureshi, while Manoj Hansraj remembered Operation Sindoor through his compelling work.
