🌟 From Teacher to Guru: A Special Teacher’s Day Expert Session 🌟

 🌟 From Teacher to Guru: A Special Teacher’s Day Session 🌟

I feel truly honoured to have been invited as an expert speaker by Sheth G. H. & D. J. Sarv High School, Bagwada, on the special occasion of Teachers’ Day.

I had the wonderful opportunity to interact with students and teachers on the inspiring topic:

“શિક્ષકથી ગુરુ: ચાલો જીવન બદલીયે”

From Teacher to Guru: Let’s Transform Lives

The session focused on the true role of a teacher—not merely as an educator who imparts knowledge, but as a Guru who inspires, guides and transforms lives.

It was a memorable experience filled with meaningful interaction, inspiration and positive energy. My heartfelt thanks to the school management, Principal, teachers and students for their warm invitation and affection.

A teacher teaches lessons, but a Guru inspires a life. 🌱✨

INSPIRE Awards–MANAK & Bal Vaigyanik Pradarshani Expert Sessions

🚀 Empowering Young Innovators: INSPIRE Awards–MANAK & Bal Vaigyanik Pradarshani Expert Sessions

Inspiring Young Minds to Think, Create and Innovate

I had the wonderful opportunity to conduct expert sessions on INSPIRE Awards–MANAK and Bal Vaigyanik Pradarshani (BVP) during a two-day District Level Training Programme organized in Valsad District.

The sessions were conducted on 1st and 2nd September 2026 at the District Science Center, Dharampur, where I interacted with participants and shared practical insights on innovation, creativity, problem-solving and scientific thinking.

💡 From Problems to Powerful Ideas

The central message of my sessions was simple:

Every innovation begins with observing a problem.

Students should be encouraged to:

🔹 Observe problems around them

🔹 Ask meaningful questions

🔹 Think differently

🔹 Develop practical solutions

🔹 Create simple prototypes

🔹 Test and improve their ideas

The innovation journey can be summarized as:

Observe → Identify a Problem → Think → Create → Test → Improve

🔬 Innovation is Not About Expensive Technology

A powerful innovation does not always require expensive equipment or complicated technology.

Sometimes, a simple solution to a common daily-life problem can create a meaningful impact on society.

Through programmes such as INSPIRE Awards–MANAK and Bal Vaigyanik Pradarshani, young students get valuable opportunities to develop their creativity, scientific temperament and confidence.

👩‍🏫 The Important Role of Teachers

Teachers play a vital role in creating future innovators.

Instead of giving students all the answers, we should encourage them to ask questions, experiment, make mistakes and discover better solutions.

A single curious question can become the beginning of a great innovation.

🌟 Let Us Build a Generation of Problem Solvers

India needs young people who can not only learn from books but also use their knowledge to solve real-life challenges.

Innovation begins when a young mind says:

«“I have identified a problem, and I want to find a solution.”»

I sincerely appreciate the efforts of DIET, Valsad, for organizing this important training programme and providing me with the opportunity to contribute as an Expert Faculty Member.

Let us inspire every student to think creatively, solve problems and become a future innovator.

🚀 Think Different. Solve Problem

s. Create Innovations.

CHEMISTRY (BE01R00031)

Academic Year 2026–27

Welcome to the New Semester

Commencement Date: 22 July 2026

Dear Students,

A warm welcome to Government Engineering College, Valsad and to the fascinating world of Engineering Chemistry.

I am delighted to welcome you to Chemistry (BE01R00031), a Basic Science course designed under the National Education Policy (NEP) and the GTU Curriculum. This course is intended not only to strengthen your understanding of chemistry but also to demonstrate its role in solving real engineering problems.

As we begin our Engineering Chemistry course on 22nd July 2026, it is inspiring to know that this date holds a special place in India's scientific history.

On 22 July 1981, India's first geostationary communication satellite – APPLE (Ariane Passenger Payload Experiment) became operational. This remarkable achievement by ISRO marked India's entry into advanced satellite communication technology and paved the way for modern communication, weather forecasting, telemedicine, distance education, and digital connectivity across the nation.

Years later, on 22 July 2019, ISRO launched Chandrayaan-2, India's ambitious mission to explore the Moon. Although the Vikram lander faced challenges, the orbiter continues to provide valuable scientific data, reflecting the true spirit of scientific inquiry—where every experiment, whether fully successful or not, contributes to knowledge and future achievements.

These milestones remind us that science is a journey of curiosity, experimentation, perseverance, and innovation. As we commence this course today, let us embrace the same scientific spirit—asking questions, performing experiments with sincerity, and applying chemistry to solve real-world engineering challenges.

"Every great scientific achievement begins with a curious mind and the courage to experiment."

I wish all of you a joyful, inquisitive, and successful learning journey in BE01R00031 – Chemistry.
