Mere academic inputs are not enough, true and everlasting learning takes place only when it is accompanied with inputs from extra-curricular and out-door activities, said B P Acharya

Hyderabad: Dr MCR HRD Institute Director General B P Acharya on Wednesday said participation in adventure sports and eco-tourism will empower officer trainees to face challenges in real life boldly, and thereby emerge as the best and the brightest civil servants.

“Mere academic inputs are not enough, true and everlasting learning takes place only when it is accompanied with inputs from extra-curricular and out-door activities,” Acharya said after inaugurating the office of Adventure Academy of Telangana.

The Adventure Academy of Telangana will help All India Services and Central Civil Services Officers, and other officer trainees who attend the Foundation Courses at the Institute, to develop a spirit of adventure, participate in trekking in Nilgiri Hills, with a sense of confidence, and thereby understand the concepts of leadership, group dynamics, team building, decision making, among others in their true and total frame of reference, he said.

B Shekhar Babu, a recipient of Tenzing Norgay National Adventure Award and mountaineering coach from Telangana, who scaled Mount Everest, and Anand Kumar Sadhanapalli, who ascended Mount Everest with Malavath Poorna, were also present on the occasion.
