The event was graced by His Excellency Mr. Santosh Jha, the High Commissioner of India to Sri Lanka, as the Chief Guest. We were also honoured by the presence of Prof. Ankuran Dutta, Director of the Swami Vivekananda Cultural Centre, High Commission of India, Colombo.
Their participation highlighted the strong cultural and academic ties between India and Sri Lanka, and their commitment to fostering collaborative platforms for artistic and intellectual exchange.

We extend our sincere appreciation to all dignitaries, university leadership, faculty, students, and guests who contributed to making this event a memorable and meaningful success.
