Live to Love, as a not-for-profit organization, which has been involved with the activities centered around Women’s empowerment, environmental & Heritage conservation, & Education, organized Celebrating India, Celebrating Youth 2018 contest. The organization also supports the Druk Padma Karpo school (in Ladakh) popularly known as Rancho’s school in the film 3 idiots.

“We are encouraging bands to perform Songs inspired by India or songs they feel that reflects India and their mood, cover versions, and original compositions are all allowed, English, as well as all Indian languages, are open” – said Pem Deki, President, Live to Love International.

Given its unique geographical and developmental factor, Ladakh has witnessed major societal and cultural changes over the past few decades. While the scale and quality of education have remained low, increasing number of locals migrate to towns outside Ladakh to explore employment opportunities leading to a regional brain drain. Speaking at the program, Dr. Pramath Raj Sinha, Guest of Honour, announced The Naropa Fellowship, aimed at creating future leaders.

“The transformation outside starts from the transformation inside. 45 National and International visiting faculties will instill a strong sense of purpose and commitment in the first batch of 50 Naropa Fellows, towards working for the upliftment of Ladakh. This will equip Fellows with the skills and tools needed to successfully promote business, enterprise and civic leadership in a 21st-century world”, stated Dr. Sinha, Founder of The Naropa Fellowship.

Bhagat Finally, awaiting his own execution for the murder of Saunders, Bhagat Singh at the young age of 24 studied Marxism thoroughly and wrote a profound pamphlet “Why I am an Atheist.” which is an ideological statement in itself. The circumstances of his death and execution are worth recounting. Although, Bhagat Singh had a...
