A total of 585 teachers and staff members, who have been associated with Graphic Era for 10 to 30 years, were honoured during the ceremony.

\nRecalling Graphic Era\u2019s 33-year journey, Dr. Ghanshala said that the journey was much more than a story of achievements\u2014it was a story of the hard work, dedication and unwavering trust of the people who stood firmly with the institution through every phase. Their continued support gave new direction and momentum to Graphic Era\u2019s growth. He said that behind the institution\u2019s identity today lies the collective effort of countless people and the strength of their faith, which enabled Graphic Era to move forward despite every challenge.
\nHe said that every success brings newer and more complex challenges. Therefore, it is important to continuously expand our capabilities and prepare ourselves for what lies ahead. He added that people\u2019s expectations and our responsibilities are increasing every year. Dr. Ghanshala said that Gen Z has a greater learning capacity than previous generations and has access to comparatively more information. To understand Gen Z, teachers must step into their world and understand their thinking, expectations and concerns.
