Kamna, a student of the Department of Journalism and Mass Communication at DAV Girls College, has secured fourth position in the Kurukshetra University merit list, bringing recognition to the college through her strong academic performance in the BA Mass Communication programme.
Kamna secured 2,538 marks out of 3,300 in the sixth semester of BA Mass Communication, recording 77 per cent marks and a 9 CGPA, according to the college. Her achievement has been welcomed by the college administration and faculty, who described the merit-list position as the result of her consistent hard work, dedication and guidance from teachers.
Acting Principal Dr Surinder Kaur congratulated Kamna on the achievement and wished her a bright and successful future. She said securing fourth position in the Kurukshetra University merit list was a significant accomplishment and reflected the student’s commitment to her studies.
Dr Kaur said Kamna had brought distinction to the college through her performance at the university level. She said the achievement was a matter of pride for the entire college family and demonstrated what students can accomplish through determination, regular effort and proper academic guidance.
The Acting Principal also appreciated the contribution of the Department of Journalism and Mass Communication in supporting students in both academic and extracurricular activities. She congratulated Dr Parmesh Kumar Tyagi, head of the department, and other faculty members for their guidance and support to Kamna.
Dr Kaur further announced that Kamna would be specially honoured at the college’s annual prize distribution ceremony in recognition of her academic achievement. The proposed recognition is intended to acknowledge her performance and encourage other students to set higher academic goals.
The college said Kamna’s success is particularly noteworthy because her achievements have extended beyond classroom performance. Along with maintaining a strong academic record, she has actively participated in various media festivals organised at the state and national levels.
According to Dr Parmesh Kumar Tyagi, Kamna has demonstrated her talent in several media-related competitions and has repeatedly performed strongly at different platforms. Her participation in media festivals has allowed her to develop practical skills alongside her academic knowledge.
Tyagi said Kamna’s success in the university merit list should serve as an inspiration to other students. He emphasised that academic excellence combined with participation in competitions and practical activities can help students develop confidence and a broader understanding of their chosen field.
For a student pursuing Mass Communication, exposure to media festivals and competitions provides opportunities to apply classroom learning in practical settings. Kamna’s participation in such events, the department said, has helped her demonstrate her abilities beyond conventional academic assessment.
Her fourth position in the university merit list has therefore added another significant achievement to her academic journey. The result also reflects the importance of sustained preparation and consistency throughout the semester.
Kamna herself has set a clear goal for her future. She aspires to become a teacher and contribute towards bringing positive change to society. She believes that education should not be viewed merely as a means of securing employment but as one of the most effective instruments for creating constructive social transformation.
She said her achievement in the merit list has strengthened her confidence and motivated her to work harder towards achieving her long-term objective. Rather than treating the university result as the culmination of her efforts, she considers it an encouragement to continue learning and improving.
Her aspiration to enter the teaching profession reflects her broader interest in contributing to society through education. She believes teachers have an important role in shaping young minds, developing responsible citizens and encouraging students to pursue meaningful goals.
Kamna’s achievement has also highlighted the importance of combining academic discipline with participation in activities that develop communication, creativity and practical skills. Her experience in media festivals and competitions, alongside her academic performance, has helped establish a balanced profile as a Mass Communication student.
The college administration expressed confidence that her achievement would motivate other students to pursue excellence in their respective fields. The recognition she is scheduled to receive at the annual prize distribution ceremony will further acknowledge her contribution to the institution’s academic reputation.
The Department of Journalism and Mass Communication also expressed pride in Kamna’s performance and congratulated her on securing a place among the top-ranked students of Kurukshetra University. Faculty members said her result demonstrated the potential of students who combine dedication to academics with active participation in co-curricular and professional activities.
For Kamna, the merit-list achievement marks an important milestone in her educational journey. With her stated ambition of becoming a teacher, the experience has given her additional confidence to pursue higher goals and continue working towards a career focused on education and social contribution.
The college community congratulated Kamna and her family on the achievement and extended its best wishes for her future academic and professional endeavours. Her performance has added another accomplishment to the institution’s record and provided an encouraging example for fellow students preparing for university examinations and competitive academic opportunities.
