Roz-Roz 4.0, The Annual Cultural Magazine of IIT G 2024

Warm greetings to all
my dear students.
It is my pleasure
and privilege to be
part of students and happy to
share my opinion on the spirited
activities of the cultural board.
As the role of culture is certainly
diverse and complex, influencing
various aspects of
individuals and societies, the
understanding the role of culture
is vital for building inclusive and
harmonious societies, promoting
cross-cultural understanding, and
addressing the challenges and opportunities
that arise from cultural
diversity.
With this connection, the
cultural board is enthusiastically
involved in conducting various
Dear Students,
Greetings to all of you!!!
I am immensely pleased
that the Cultural Board
is releasing its annual magazine
during the Performing Arts Festival
(PAF) 2024. The students involved
in the Cultural Board have
done exceptionally well and are
thriving in improving their management
skills and talent around
the year. The Cultural Board comprises
ten active clubs involved in
various extracurricular cultural
activities, including dance, music,
writing, photography, arts, drama,
debate, culinary, etc. Coordinated
by a secretary, each club has responsibly
executed their job, and
I congratulate them for showcasing
their talent and encouraging
cultural activities on and across
campus and so as to provide enriched
ambient to students’ community
to showcase their talent
beyond classroom activities. It is
indeed great to see Manthan - Inter
Hostel Cultural Competition;
Performed Arts Festival - Flagship
event; Virasat - Spicmacay, IITG
Episode ended with high note, Alcheringa
- Cultural Fest of IITG
and Inter IIT Cultural Meet, etc.
While I am proud of ongoing
cultural board activities, having
positive aspects, I am also worried
that the outreach of the cultural
activities to our own students is
very limited and hence causing
sever imbalance in the wellbeing
of the campus. Here are some
general perspectives to improve
on certain aspects to have potential
benefits and significance of
cultural board activities: Promotion
of Cultural Understanding;
Preservation of Cultural Heritage;
Community Building; Educational
Opportunities; Artistic
Expression; Tourism and Local
Economy; Cultural Diplomacy;
Interdisciplinary Connections,
etc.
Wish the cultural team to
have endeavour journey to the
benefit of the campus community.
the younger generation to continue
their legacy. Every year, club
secretaries and senior members
schedule an orientation program
for newly admitted students and
encourage them to get involved in
various extracurricular activities
based on their interests to shape
their all-around development.
Eventually, club members get
opportunities to showcase their
talent not limited to campus but
also outside the institute through
inter-IIT cultural events held annually
by one of the 23 IITs. Various
activities and events conducted
by the students make their lives
vibrant during their stay on campus.
I am grateful to the Students
Affairs section for financially supporting
each club’s requirements.
I wish you all the best and success
in conducting PAF-24 and hope
all participants will cherish the
moments throughout their lives.
