For the first time in the history of Lal Bahadur Shastri National Academy of Administration (LBSNAA), parents of Officer Trainees (OTs) of the 96th Foundation Course were invited to the prestigious institution for the valedictory function. A total of 133 family members attended the programme and interacted with Director, LBSNAA, Mr. Srinivas R. Katikithala.

The 96th Foundation Course, which commenced on 5 December 2021, came to an end on 17 March 2022. The batch comprised of 488 Officer Trainees from 16 services and 3 Royal Bhutan Services (Administrative, Police, and Forest).

To mark the farewell of the Officer Trainees, a valedictory function was organised in the institution where their parents were invited for the first time. As family plays a big role in the lives of these Officer Trainees, it was a moment of pure love and respect for both the 133 family members who attended the function and the OTs as well.

Apart from this, an informal ‘Spouse Sensitisation Programme’ was organised by LBSNAA for building meaningful lives in civil services. The main focus during the discussion was the challenges, expectations, work-life balance and proactive support to team and subordinate staff families. The Director, his spouse and faculty members took part in the interactions.
