There’s a particular hush on a college ground just before a race begins — that charged mix of nervous energy and anticipation. Mohit Bansal felt that same spark during his visit to Punjab Engineering College’s 77th Annual Athletic Meet, where he was invited as a felicitation guest to inspire students with his journey.
As an avid badminton enthusiast, the event resonated deeply with him. Watching young athletes give their all — running with intent, pushing their limits, and cheering each other on — reminded him of the essence of progress: effort, focus, and heart.
For Mohit Bansal, sports mirror life and leadership. They strip away distractions, teach discipline through repetition, teamwork through shared effort, and resilience through recovery after every setback.
What struck him most was the quiet determination of the students — a spirit that, he believes, builds strong individuals, thriving communities, and a forward-looking nation. Beyond medals and accolades, he saw something greater: possibility — the courage to try, to improve, and to rise again.
He expressed his gratitude to Punjab Engineering College for the invitation and lauded every participant for embodying the true spirit of competition. As Mohit Bansal often says, “It’s the quiet lessons learned on the field that shape who we become — in life, in work, and in the way we build our shared future.”
