Some snapshots from AADHAR 2082 – Day 1!

Kajaria presents AADHAR 2082, powered by Berger Paints Nepal, was grandly inaugurated by the Honorable Minister of Forest and Environment and Minister of Physical Infrastructure and Transport, Government of Nepal, Madhav Prasad Chaulagain.

The major events of Day 1 were captured in action, including the BE Model Exhibition, Survey Challenge, National Level Shake Table Competition, Popsicle Stick Bridge Competition, and the exciting Bingo Tombola—showcasing innovation, technical excellence, enthusiasm, and active participation throughout the day.

Doubting your abilities, and feeling behind on your dreams. We feel this more often than we’d like to admit.

A simple nudge can clarify that the steps you take matter. A mentor who has already walked a similar path can offer perspectives that may have taken years to learn.

Aiming for collective growth of Pulchowkians, VectorBridge connects undergraduate Pulchowk students with seniors and alumni based on shared interests and experiences.

Any Pulchowk student/alumnus with the willingness to share what they’ve learnt (limited, and possibly unrelated to engineering) are humbly requested to support this initiative.

Mentorship is the direct sharing of hard-earned experience to guide others. It is not tutoring or carrying someone’s success. And mentors are not required to set aside dedicated time for this initiative.
