Speaking to Edugraph, Father Davis Veliyan said, “We believe that education is based on 3 H’s: Head, which is the intellectual part, Heart, which encompasses the emotions, and Hands, which stands for all the activities. Here we are trying to provide the boys with an enriching educational experience.” His thoughts were echoed by Father Anand Raj, Bursar of DB Liluah, who added, “Today’s event has been meticulously planned for the past month, and provides students with the platform to exhibit their various talents.”
