Investiture Ceremony
An unfolding bud, amazes us by taking richer colour and dimensions with each passing day. A child too transforms by progressing gradually day after day, revealing its innate potential. From enjoying the colours of the rainbows to building up colourful dreams and striving to achieve them; the transformation is alluring. True to the vision of the founder, Shri P Madhusudhan Rao, DSE believes that every student is like that unfolding tiny bud which is uniquely colourful and fragrant and provides a healthy platform to discover new dimensions in one’s persona.
