Hindustan International School Celebrates Yoga Day with a Salute to Operation Sindoor

Hindustan International School, Padur observed International Yoga Day with a heartfelt homage to the Indian Army under the theme “Operation Sindoor – A Tribute to the Indian Army.”  The celebration was held on campus with great enthusiasm, discipline, and emotional resonance, honouring the bravery and sacrifice of India’s armed forces.

The highlight of the event was a large-scale student formation spelling out “Operation Sindoor HISP-25,” symbolising unity, respect, and national pride. Meticulously executed by students from the Physical Education Department, student council members and volunteers, the formation stood as a powerful expression of collective purpose and gratitude towards the Indian Army.

Dr. Anand Jacob Verghese, Chairman, Hindustan Group of Institutions, stated: “International Yoga Day is a reminder of the balance and discipline we all need in life—qualities that are also at the core of our armed forces. Today, we not only celebrate health and well-being but also honour the bravery of those who serve the nation. This is a day to reflect on the peace we enjoy and the sacrifices that make it possible.”

The event was conducted in a grand and disciplined manner, blending the spirit of yoga with patriotic purpose. The formation reflected harmony and national unity, while also providing students with a moment to reflect on the freedoms they enjoy and reinforce their awareness of the responsibilities they carry as future citizens.

By linking yoga with a tribute to the armed forces, the school encouraged students to recognise the role of discipline, service, and unity in building a strong nation. The event left a meaningful impression on all attendees and served as a reminder of the values that must be upheld to preserve the peace we often take for granted.
