together. Sports bring this ideal to life. The United Nations (UN) has recognised Sports as an important enabler of sustainable development and peace. Spardha is a tribute to the spirit of the UN and the reaffirmation of our collective commitment to peace, unity, and a more harmonious world.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote><p class=\"t-body text-[#3A4452] mb-4\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">In her address, <\/span><b>CMS Managing Director Prof. Geeta Gandhi Kingdon<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> emphasised that sports occupy an integral place in education and the holistic development of CMS Students. She mentioned\u2013<\/span><\/p><blockquote class=\"article-quote\"><p>\u201cSpardha seeks to inspire students to approach competition with discipline, courage and sportsmanship, while understanding that the lessons learnt on the field extend far beyond the sporting arena. Success in sports cannot be measured merely by records broken or medals won. Its enduring value lies equally in the development of character, resilience and respect for both the limitations and potential of the human body.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote><p class=\"t-body text-[#3A4452] mb-4\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Encouraging the young athletes, <\/span><b>CMS Founder-Director Dr Bharti Gandhi<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> spoke of the deeper human values embedded in sporting participation.<\/span><\/p><blockquote class=\"article-quote\"><p>\u201cSports is all about sports spirit, the spirit of unity and love. Schools play a crucial role in uniting people.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote><p class=\"t-body text-[#3A4452] mb-6\">Her message resonated with the foundational philosophy of City Montessori School, \u2018Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam\u2019 (the World Is One Family) under which education is envisioned as a means of nurturing responsible global citizens committed to universal brotherhood and peaceful coexistence.<\/p><p class=\"t-body text-[#3A4452] mb-6\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Addressing the young athletes from India and abroad, <\/span><b>Chief Guest Lieutenant Colonel Joshi congratulated CMS on organising the international sporting event<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">.
