Every once in a while, a reader is born who doesn’t just flip pages—they build bridges to new worlds, new ideas, and new dreams. At St. Francis Institute Of Technology (SFIT), we believe in celebrating these readers.
On October 15, 2025, celebrated as ReadingInspirationDay in Maharashtra, we honoured the BestLibraryUsers of the Academic Year 2024–2025—readers whose love for books lit up our library, minds, and campus corridors.Congratulations to Dr. Sunil R. Pansare (HOD, Department of Mechanical Engineering), Mohsin Dalvi (Department of Mechanical Engineering), Varsha Thandasarry (Department of Electrical Engineering), Dhammapal Gaikwad (Department of Mechanical Engineering), Owais Shaikh, Student at Department of Information Technology at SFIT, RAJAN Zagade Student at Department of Electrical Engineering), Om Kate, Student at Department of Electronics and Telecommunications
Why October 15?
It’s no ordinary day—it’s the birth anniversary of Dr. A.P.J. Abdul Kalam, the Missile Man of India, a scientist, a visionary, and above all—a passionate advocate of reading. He once said, “Learning gives creativity, creativity leads to thinking, thinking provides knowledge, and knowledge makes you great.”
Adding to this legacy, our own Director, Bro. Shantilal Kujur, is a voracious reader himself, regularly visiting book exhibitions to discover new ideas and inspire our students. His passion fuels the culture of reading at our Institute and reminds us all that leaders are readers.
🏆 Awarded by our Director, these library members stood out for:
📖 Why Reading Still Rules
💡Inspired by Indian Reading Icons
Let’s not forget homegrown heroes who swear by the power of books:
Dr. A.P.J. Abdul Kalam – a daily reader and youth motivator
Sudha Murty – who makes stories feel like warm cups of chai
Amish Tripathi – who redefined mythology for modern readers
Chetan Bhagat – who brought books to every Indian college student’s backpack
Narendra Modi – who champions reading through ‘ParikshaPeCharcha’
So here’s to every reader who ever got “lost” in a book—and came out wiser, kinder, and more curious.
📚💫 Keep turning the pages. Because readers today are the leaders tomorrow.
