Chief
Minister Mrs. Sheila Dikshit sharing Colours and Green ambition
with AstroKids
The
tiny tots of Astro Kids ELC were given a real treat when they
were given an opportunity to celebrate the festival of colours
with our Honourable Chief Minister Mrs. Sheila Dikshit at
her residence on 17th March. The children were dressed
in cute lehngas and kurta pyjamas and waited very
patiently for the elegant lady.
She
greeted the children charmingly and accepted their shy offering
of flowers graciously. She made the youngest baby Sanyukta,
sit in her lap and allowed the children to put a teeka of
red gulal on her forehead. The Chairman Mr. Rohit Chopra’s
daughter, Adya Katyayani presented a portrait made by the
Art teacher to Mrs. Dikshit.
She asked Ojasvi, “Who am I?” and he did us
proud when he answered “ The Chief Minister
– Mrs. Sheila Dikshit”. The Director
Mrs. Malthi Chopra told Mrs. Dikshit about the kind of activities
carried out in the school and also about the school’s
contribution towards the upliftment of the underprivileged
children from Tihar Jail and of broken homes. Feeling pleasantly
surprised , the honourable CM complimented the staff on their
effective and innovative methods of dealing with the children,
as it was quite a task to keep a sense of order among the
little ones. She offered sweets and chocolates to all the
children, which they enjoyed with gusto.
Since
it was a working day and the CM had a tough day in front of
her, the children reluctantly took leave, but only after thanking
Mrs. Dikshit politely for the precious time she spent with
them.
