It was with great joy
and jubilation in the local area, when Miss Suman Rawat, an alumna
of Omkarananda Saraswati Nilayam Inter-College (OSN),
Muni-ki-reti, Rishikesh, came out with flying colours in Indian
Civil Services Competition this year. People all around talked
about her with wonder and pride and said: "She has done her family
proud. She has done the OSN school proud and this region too.
OMKARANANDA SARASWATI NILAYAM is doing a wonderful job in
imparting excellence and quality education. Let us felicitate her
and also the school authorities, its Principal, Col (Retd) D.L.
Sachdeva, the teachers and the President, Shri Swami
Vishveshwaranandaji Maharaj."

On 22nd May 2010, the Councilors, local
businessmen, social workers, educationists, lawyers of Bar
Association, political leaders, police officers etc. assembled in
the Hall of Nagar Panchayat, Muni-ki-reti and attended the grand
ceremony to felicitate her and honour the OSN Principal and the
President, Swami Vishveshwaranandaji Maharaj, for nurturing and
bringing up such talents in this area. The function was presided
over by Mrs. Kainthura and the Guests of Honour were Shri Swami
Vishveshwaranandaji Maharaj and Principal, Col (Retd) D.L.
Sachdeva. The other distinguished guests were Manoj Dwivedi,
Ex-Chairman, Nagar Panchayat, Muni-ki-reti, and Shri Ramesh
Uniyal.
Swamiji blessed Suman saying that she has
brought name and fame to all of us. The Principal expressed his
happiness and pride and gave several examples of the meritorious
students of Omkarananda Saraswati Nilayam, like Suman, whom he
nurtured and brought up as a gardener in the garden of flowers.
Shri Manoj Dwivedi honoured the Principal calling him the real
hero of the ceremony and paid rich tribute to Shri Swami
Omkarananda Maharaj, the Founder of the School and Shri Swami
Vishveshwaranandaji Maharaj for doing such marvellous service in
the field of education of the masses of this region and whole
Garhwal.
Miss Suman Rawat thanked every one
present at the function and requested the local leaders never to
make the school a field of political activities. She said, that
the school should remain a Gurukul where educational transactions
between the students and teachers only take place, as it used to
be up to now.
