75 Girls Complete 48-Day Self-Defence Training in Sitapur School

A 48-day self-defence training programme organised at Uchchतर Madhyamik Vidyalaya Akbarpur Khurd in Khairabad development block of Uttar Pradesh’s Sitapur district concluded on Thursday. BJP leader and social worker Sagar Gupta, who attended the programme as the chief guest, honoured 75 girls who had completed the training by presenting them with gifts and encouraging them.

The training was conducted for 48 days at the school. During this period, the school’s sports teacher, Mrs Nazia Siddiqui, taught various self-defence skills to the 75 girls.

The main objective of the programme was to make the girls physically and mentally stronger. The training also focused on building their confidence, self-respect and courage to face difficult and adverse situations.

During the closing programme, Sagar Gupta interacted with the girls and sought information about their experiences during the training. He also discussed the importance of education, self-reliance and self-defence with them.

Gupta said, “The education, self-reliance and self-confidence of daughters are the identity of an empowered society. Self-defence training not only makes daughters aware of their own safety, but also gives them the strength to face difficult situations with courage.”

He wished all the girls a bright future and encouraged them to move forward not only in education but also in sports and other creative activities.

The programme was attended by the school’s headmaster, Mr Shardanand Yadav; assistant teacher Mr Rambalak Patel; assistant teacher Mrs Neha Nigam; assistant teacher Mrs Sonia Ji; and other members of the school family.

The organisers said the programme gave the girls an opportunity to learn self-defence skills over 48 days while also encouraging them to become more confident and self-reliant. The 75 girls were honoured at the conclusion of the training in the presence of the chief guest and members of the school staff.
