Super 30 Founder Anand Kumar Encourages Students to Blend Knowledge with Social Responsibility

India, 16th September 2025: Renowned mathematician and Super 30 founder Anand Kumar addressed students at Marwadi University on the 58th National Engineers’ Day as part of the Human Library Series, inspiring them with a powerful message on learning for knowledge, building resilience under pressure, and embracing technology responsibly

Opening his talk, Kumar urged students to view Engineers’ Day as an opportunity to ‘recommit to knowledge, not just credentials.’ He cautioned against reducing education to mere marketing or short-term outcomes, emphasizing that strong content and clear concepts must always come before scale. Everyone talks about growth and promotion, but few focus on strengthening the content,’ he said. ‘Study for knowledge and to innovate — jobs and money will follow when you truly understand your subject

Drawing on three decades of teaching, Kumar shared powerful stories of students whose persistence transformed their lives. He spoke about Abhishek Raj, who once studied under a streetlight while working odd jobs, went on to qualify for IIT Kharagpur, and now holds a senior position in the United States. He also highlighted the journey of Shashi Narayan, who overcame personal loss to top a global science scholarship competition in France, pursue Computer Science at IIT Kharagpur, and now works as a scientist in London. ‘Hard work has no substitute,’ Kumar reminded the students. ‘When faced with difficulties, don’t change your path change your effort.’

Kumar urged students to measure success by the problems they solve and the value they create, rather than the immediate salary packages they receive. He framed AI as both an opportunity and a test, emphasizing the need for continuous upskilling and global awareness. He encouraged students to study how subjects are taught around the world and to focus on what unique contributions they can make. Reflecting on his own early struggles and the inception of Super 30, Kumar shared how curiosity about global learning trends and early adoption of new tools shaped his own journey

In closing, Kumar urged students to nurture four qualities for meaningful success: an unrelenting thirst for goals, positive thinking through setbacks, hard work to build true strength, and patience to endure the journey. He praised the audience’s focus, reminding them that listening is the first step to creating anything worthwhile, and left them with a powerful message — knowledge, character, and contribution must go hand in hand, especially on a day that celebrates engineers’ role in shaping society.

Academic Performance, Career Concerns & Homework top Stressors for Students: IC3 Student Suicide Report 2025

24 August 2025: The Annual IC3 Conference & Expo 2025, held at Jio Convention Centre, in Mumbai on August 20–21, brought together more than 1,500 educators, school leaders, counselors and university representatives from across 95 countries to address one of the most urgent challenges facing India’s youth: student mental health and well-being. The conference, centred on the theme “Counseling as a Culture”, marked the launch of the Student Suicides Aversion Report-Mental Health & Well-Being, Volume III: The Student Well-Being Pulse Report, an extensive survey based on responses from 8,542 students across India by the IC3 Institute.

The report reveals a crisis cutting across grades, gender, and geographies. While academic pressure remains the dominant stressor, students report persistent emotional distress, lack of access to professional support, and widespread uncertainty about their futures.
Key Findings from the 2025 Student Well-Being Pulse Report

Emotional distress among students is widespread. One in five rarely experiences calmness, motivation or excitement, and girls continue to be disproportionately affected, reporting nearly twice the rate of persistent sadness compared to boys. Forty percent of students do not know where to go in school for mental health support, while nearly half have never received structured career counseling, a key source of anxiety about their future. Three out of four Grade 12 students fall short of the recommended 7–8 hours of sleep on school nights, driven largely by academic overload and relentless overthinking. Yet, there are positive signs: more schools today acknowledge the importance of counseling, and awareness among students on where to access support has been steadily rising. The Supreme Court has also underscored the urgent need for robust school-based counseling systems, adding both momentum and legitimacy to this critical movement.

Commenting on the findings, Ganesh Kohli, Founder of the IC3 Movement, said, “This is no longer a silent problem. It is a visible and urgent crisis. While more schools are now offering counseling and students are increasingly aware of where to seek help, almost half of our students still remain unsure, and career anxiety continues to steal their sleep and peace of mind. Mental health cannot be treated as optional. Every school must make counseling and emotional support part of its core infrastructure, while expanding access, broadbasing programs, and equipping teachers and staff as trained gatekeepers. Our children deserve nothing less.”
Gendered and Hidden Struggles

The report underscores deep gender disparities. Girls are more likely to internalise stress and avoid professional help, while non-binary students report the lowest overall well-being. Friends are often the first point of contact for students in distress, yet most peers lack the training to provide effective support.

Career Anxiety and Academic Overload

Uncertainty about the future is among the top three stressors for students. Without clear and consistent career guidance, many feel adrift, compounding the academic pressure that defines much of adolescence. Sleep deprivation, especially among senior students, is at critical levels and directly linked to screen use before bedtime and chronic overthinking.

As the IC3 Movement enters its 10th year, the 2025 Annual IC3 Conference & Expo in Mumbai marked a defining moment in its journey to embed counseling into the fabric of education. Bringing together more than 1,500 educators, counselors, university representatives, and changemakers from 95 countries, the event highlighted both the progress made and the work that still lies ahead broadening access, training educators as gatekeepers, and creating systemic support structures across schools.

The conference featured over 35 expert-led sessions, pre-conference workshops, and the Inner Child Workshop, helping educators reflect on their own formative experiences and connect more deeply with students. Senior education leaders, including Dr. Indu Shahani (ATLAS SkillTech University), and Shri Sanjay Kumar (Secretary, Department of School Education & Literacy, Ministry of Education, Government of India), shared insights on embedding mental health and counseling into everyday school functioning, while stressing the shared responsibility of families, institutions, and communities.

As the host of this event, ATLAS SkillTech University will play a pivotal role in supporting the initiative. Sharing her thoughts, Dr. Indu Shahani, Founding President & Chancellor of ATLAS SkillTech University, India said “I am proud to support this important gathering. I feel deeply honoured to be part of a platform that is shaping the future of education and student well-being. What makes this conference meaningful is the way it positions counseling not as an option, but as a culture that must exist in every school. I look forward to joining conversations that advance this belief and help ensure that every young person receives the guidance they deserve during their formative years. For me, this is not only about education, but also about nurturing futures with care and purpose.”
Keynote reflections came from renowned voices such as Boman Irani, Devdutt Pattanaik, and Gauranga Das, while the Presidential Forum brought together Ratna Pathak Shah, Soha Ali Khan, Ronnie Screwvala, and other luminaries to discuss purpose, well-being, and the role of collaborative support for young people.

As IC3 moves into its next decade, these conversations underscore the Movement’s commitment: counseling must not only be accessible but integrated, proactive, and capable of shaping the holistic development of every student. To further this mission, IC3 has also introduced new formats such as IC3 On Demand, a customized model of engagement where events are designed in partnership with mission-aligned institutions to achieve shared goals with high impact; and the IC3 Regional Conferences, enhanced platforms that build on the Regional Forums to support educators and counselors across regions in addressing the evolving needs of students worldwide.

In this context, education becomes not only a means of personal development but also a powerful tool for empowerment and self-reliance. “With the right guidance at the right time, and by developing appropriate skills, young women can elevate their careers to new heights,” he remarked.

Dr. Jha urged students to introspect and choose careers based on their interests and capabilities. He emphasized that career selection should not be limited to just securing a job but should be seen as a life-defining decision.

The seminar was held under the guidance of Dr. Urvashi Gautam, in-charge of the Placement Cell of the college. She stated that such programs help build students’ confidence and prepare them to thrive in a competitive environment.

Professor (Dr.) Ajay Kumar Gupta, Head of the IMS School of IT, informed that a total of 15 industry experts took part in this special training program, which ran for three weeks. These experts not only discussed current industrial trends and technological advancements in detail but also provided guidance on essential skills, innovations, and strategies required to address future challenges effectively.

Youth: The Triple Power for a Better Tomorrow ,Skills, Culture, and Ethics

birbal jha

By – Dr Birbal Jha

Every generation inherits both the challenges and opportunities of its time. But the youth of today stand at a unique crossroads—where the pace of change is lightning fast, and the demands of the future are knocking louder than ever. In such a time, what can guide the youth to not just survive but thrive? The answer lies in a powerful threefold formula: English for livelihood, Indian culture for identity, and ethics for social progress.

As I often say, let English be your ladder to livelihood, Indian culture your root of identity, and ethics your compass for social progress. In a globalised world, English is no longer just a subject in schools—it is the passport to opportunities, the bridge that connects dreams to reality. Mastering it can open the doors to jobs, entrepreneurship, and international networks. Master English to open global doors, embrace Indian culture to know who you are, and uphold ethics to lead the world forward.

Yet, career success without cultural grounding can leave one rootless. Indian culture is more than tradition; it is a living heritage of values, resilience, and unity. Knowing where you come from gives you the confidence to face where you’re going. That’s why I believe, A prosperous youth is one who earns with skill, stands tall in cultural pride, and walks straight on the path of ethics.

But there’s a third and perhaps most vital pillar—ethics. Skills can get you a job; culture can give you identity; but ethics will decide how you use both. Without ethics, power can be dangerous, success can be hollow, and progress can be unsustainable. As I often remind the young, English equips your career, culture enriches your soul, and ethics empower your society—grow in all three, and you’ll never shrink in life.

On International Youth Day, this message becomes even more important: Your words in English can earn you bread, your cultural values can earn you respect, and your ethics can earn you immortality. Youth is the golden hour to set the course of your life, to learn the skills that will sustain you, to nurture the cultural values that will shape you, and to practice the ethics that will define you.

The future belongs to those who are globally competent yet culturally proud, ambitious yet ethical. As I often put it, “Be a youth who speaks the language of the world, carries the culture of India, and lives by the principles of humanity.” Because, while fluency in English may make you employable, fluency in ethics will make you unforgettable.

And when youth combine skills with culture and ethics, they don’t just create careers—they create history. They don’t just build lives—they build nations. As I sum it up: English can take you to the world, Indian culture can keep you grounded, and ethics can take you beyond yourself.

So, dear youth—learn with passion, live with pride, and lead with integrity. The world is waiting for your light.
