Hyderabad, June 21st, 2021: Institute of Management Technology, Hyderabad inaugurated “ABHYUDAY,” the Management Orientation Program for the 11th batch of PGDM students, on the 21st of June, 2021. Abhyuday means a beginning, like a rising sun full of energy representing the students’ dedication and commitment. The ceremony began with the garlanding of Shri. Mahendranath’s Statue. The event proceeded with Prof. Dhananjay Singh extending a warm welcome to the students and commended them for having the courage to take such a huge step in their career in these uncertain times.

Finally, he explained their contribution in the academic areas and the offices, departments, and other centers.
