Cultural Affairs Department Adviser Dr K V Ramana has appealed to the teachers and parents to create awareness on “teenage temptations and emotions” among the students.
Releasing a poster on “Yuva Tarang Walk” here on Thursday, Dr Ramana said the walk was aimed at establishing a platform for the teenagers to discuss about biological and psychological changes in them. He stressed the need for parents and teachers to spread awareness about the relationships between girls and boys and give them proper guidance. He said the walk would create a thought among the teachers, intellectuals and elite of the society about the youths’ attraction to the opposite sex and other habits love and make them talk about it.
The walk coordinator V. Ravi Kumar said the walk with some 200 students would be led by noted psychologist Dr C. Veerendar from BHEL Ramachandrapuram of Medak district to Hanamkonda in Warangal district from October 9 to 13. He said that the motto of the walk is to create awareness on teenage temptation among the teachers, parents and students.
Ravi Kumar said that film actor Tarun would flag off the walk on October 9 at 9 am at BHEL township at Ramachandrapuram. The walk would pass through Begumpet, Uppal, Ghatkesar, Bhongir, Kazipet and would reach Hanamkonda on October 13. He said that Kakatiya University Vice-Chancellor would be the chief guest at the valedictory function at the Government Degree College grounds on that day.
Speaking on the occasion, “You and Me” director Dr Veerendar said that teenage is a stage where youth faces and experiences so many biological and psychological changes. At this stage the youth get into emotional bonding and attraction towards opposite sex easily. “These relationships could be fun and exciting temporally, but at the same time, such relationships are also sources of danger and abuse. Attraction and emotion among the youth at this stage is natural and if proper judgment was made of other persons, these relations could be well maintained”, he said and appealed to the parents, students and teachers to participate in the walk and make it a total success.
