Enthusiasm was all around as the Integral University campus came alive with the inauguration of its three-day annual festival Fiesta 2022 on Thursday. It is after two years that the university’s annual fest is being held in an offline mode and the excitement of participants in the annual cultural, literary and sports extravaganza was palpable.
Speaking on the occasion, chief guest NC Prajapati, director general, medical education, government of Uttar Pradesh, praised the vast green campus and the array of students that Integral University had gathered under its banner and built a name for itself in academic excellence.
Guest of honour Dr Alok Kumar, secretary/ registrar UP state medical faculty, appreciated the excellent work that the university did during the pandemic and said it truly deserved a celebration. Azra Waseem, founder, Techno Academic School, Lucknow, stole the show by asking students to learn that the spirit of sportsmanship was not just in winning but in participation too.
