 "'A degree and a million hearts': Indian boy's gesture on graduation day abroad wins hearts")
No matter where one lives or does whatever in life, it is paramount to never forget one’s roots and heritage. Showcasing the same, Indian Administrative Service (IAS) officer Awanish Sharan recently took to microblogging site X to share a gratifying clip featuring an Indian boy proudly unfurling the National Flag at his graduation ceremony abroad. When called upon to the stage to receive the fruit of his efforts, in the form of a degree, the boy first remembered the nation. He moved from one place to another with the tricolour placed on his shoulders. He was dressed in a Kurta-dhoti paired with Kolhapuri slippers.
The IAS officer’s video comes in line with motivational content that receives huge appreciation from his followers. Just like the previous clips, the recent video has also gathered interest in inducing nationalistic fervour in Internet users and citizens alike.
