NEW DELHI, Sept 7: Bachpan and AHPS Groups, New Delhi, organized `Samvaad’- an interaction for discussion on the current trends and requirements in education.

Samvaad is an interaction of the best, foremost and experienced intellectuals and academicians of the society who discuss, share and opine their views on the given topic. This year’s topic of  Samvaad was `How  to teach social and emotional skills to students at school’.

Connecting his personal life experiences as a coach, he said that to achieve a target of hundred runs, he  would motivate his  team to score 10 runs repeatedly for 10 times thus, making the target achievable.
Sandeep Patil stressed that the society must continue to honour teachers so that they are  motivated to do more towards shaping the young minds positively, in order to give to the nation talented, patriotic and successful individuals.
Ajay Gupta, the Group CEO, summarized the view points expressed by the guest speakers and reiterated  his commitment to work towards the implementation of teaching social and emotional skills at schools.
