XXVIII Sorbon International Convocation 2026: Global Excellence Celebrated in Delhi

 XXVIII Sorbon International Convocation 2026: Global Excellence Celebrated in Delhi

New Delhi just hosted one of the most significant academic and leadership summits of the year. Discover how the 2026 

Sorbon Convocation united visionaries across global business, politics, and social empowerment. 

XXVIII Sorbon International Convocation held on September 19, 2026, at Bel-la Monde Hotel, New Delhi, featuring Dr. Vivek Anand Oberoi and distinguished guests.

NEW DELHI — What defines true global leadership today?

On Saturday, September 19, 2026, New Delhi delivered a powerful answer. The city hosted the highly prestigious XXVIII Sorbon International Convocation. It was an event defined by unparalleled ambition.

The magnificent Bel-la Monde Hotel served as the backdrop. Located near the bustling Delhi Airport, the venue welcomed a truly elite crowd. Global visionaries gathered under one roof. They came to celebrate the absolute peak of human achievement.

The esteemed École Supérieure Robert de Sorbon (ESRDS)from France organized the ceremony. They partnered directly with India's IIPPT Foundation. Together, they built a massive bridge between European academic prestige and Indian entrepreneurial brilliance.

A Grand Arrival: Setting the Global Stage

The energy was electric from the very first minute.

Registrations opened sharply at 11:00 AM. Delegates and awardees captured their proudest moments at the official photo booths. By noon, the main hall was packed. Anticipation filled the air.

At 12:05 PM, the entire room stood in unified silence. The national anthems of France and India played back-to-back. This powerful moment highlighted deep, cross-border respect.

Shortly after, the ceremonial lamp was lit. It beautifully merged ancient Indian tradition with modern global academia.

Strong leadership steered the day. Dr. Vivek Choudhry delivered the opening address. As Vice President of ESRDS France and Chairman of IIPPT Foundation, his vision was clear. He demanded excellence.

Then, the spotlight shifted. Dr. John Thomas Prade, President of ESRDS France, took the stage. He had flown in specifically for this exact moment. His keynote address outlined a bold new future for international education.

The Bharat Samman Awards: Recognizing Titans

But academic degrees were only half the story.

At 12:50 PM, the event shifted gears. It was time for the Bharat Samman Awards. Instituted in memory of the Late Dr. Narendra Choudhry, these awards carry massive prestige. They target individuals fundamentally changing society.

The 2026 winners list is nothing short of extraordinary:

Dr. Vivek Anand Oberoi

Honored for Global Business Entrepreneurship & Social Service.

Shri Jayant Sinha

Honored for extensive contributions to Politics & Social Service.

Smt. Usha Rai

Honored for decades of excellence in Journalism & Media.

Dr. Amit Goenka

Honored for driving visionary Business Entrepreneurship.

Shri Jayant Sinha’s presence bridged a critical gap. It proved that sound public policy directly fuels educational growth.

Then came a highly anticipated moment. Bollywood icon and entrepreneur Dr. Vivek Anand Oberoi took the stage. He didn't just win a Bharat Samman Award. The institution proudly conferred an honorary D.Litt. degree upon him.

Why? Because his work extends far beyond entertainment. His expansive philanthropic ventures and global business frameworks demand the highest academic respect.

legacy is not the roles I have played on screen. My true legacy would be my contribution to my great motherland, Bharat." These words by Dr. Vivek Anand Oberoi stood out during the XXVIII Sorbon International Convocation in New Delhi.

The event brought together distinguished academicians, professionals and guests to recognise Vivek Anand Oberoi spoke about seva—the opportunity to help someone when we are in a position to do so.

He reminded us that these moments of service create a form of wealth that cannot be measured through possessions, awards or conventional success. Our real contribution is reflected in the lives we touch. 

That thought led to a reflection on legacy. Professional achievements may be remembered for a period of time, but the positive difference we make in other people's lives can leave a far deeper and more lasting impact.

Another thought that resonated deeply was: "You can get work done by Artificial Intelligence. You can access Al from various places. But spirituality is found only in Bharat." Al can help us improve productivity, automate tasks and achieve more.

But spirituality reminds us why we should use our abilities, how we should serve others and what kind of legacy we should leave behind.


Technology can amplify our work. Seva gives it meaning. Spirituality gives it direction.

Dr. Vivek Anand Oberoi being handed over the prestigious degree at grand Sorbon International Convocation stage.

Shattering Ceilings: The Women Empowerment Awards

True progress requires absolute inclusion. The organizers understood this deeply.

They introduced the highly celebrated Women Empowerment Awards. ESRDS, IIPPT, and the Bel-la Monde Hotel jointly backed this initiative. They sought out female leaders who are fundamentally altering their industries.

Dr. Neeti Sharma — Awarded for Women Awakening & Social Service. A true champion of grassroots mobilization.

Dr. Neha Dewan — Awarded for Global Entrepreneurship. She continues to break international corporate barriers.

Ms. Nidhi Baweja — Awarded for Spirituality & Tarot. Acknowledging unique forms of spiritual leadership.

Ms. Aarti Khetarpal — Awarded for Singing & Modelling. Proving art and culture remain vital societal pillars.

These awards send a crystal-clear message. Leadership has no single definition. It thrives in boardrooms, in communities, and on the cultural stage.

A Masterclass in Cultural Integration

How do you keep a highly formal event deeply engaging?

You infuse it with raw, authentic art. The convocation featured a deeply moving Invocation of Lord Ganesha and Guru Vandana. The Ghungroo Institute captivated the room with a breathtaking Kathak performance.

But the most emotional moment arrived shortly after. Children with special abilities from the Sukhsetu Foundation performed an incredibly inspiring medley. There was rarely a dry eye in the venue.

The leadership team responded immediately. Dr. Prade, Dr. Choudhry, and Dr. Vivek Oberoi stood together on stage. They presented formal Certificates of Appreciation to these brilliant young performers. Excellence recognized excellence.

Conferring the Ultimate Academic Accolades

At 1:25 PM, the core academic ceremony commenced.

Scores of deserving candidates finally received their Doctorate degrees. The committee read individual citations aloud. This public validation is crucial. It confirms years of relentless research and global networking.

Spiritual leader Sadguru Dr. Sakshi Shree provided profound Words of Inspiration. Distinguished Guests of Honour, including Dr. Gurmeet Singh and Dr. Kamal Anand, amplified the event's unmatched prestige.

Dr. Nirmal Bansal, Provost of ESRDS France, brought the event to a graceful close. Following his Vote of Thanks, delegates shared a vast networking lunch. Vital operational thanks were given to key team members—Sagar, Priyaank, Shubham, Lucky, Arjun, and Ritika.

The True Impact of the 2026 Convocation

The world is changing fast. Education can no longer exist in a silo.

The XXVIII Sorbon International Convocation proved a massive point. Real-world corporate strategy, journalistic integrity, and academic rigor must evolve together. By honoring figures like Vivek Oberoi and Usha Rai, ESRDS and IIPPT validated this exact truth.

New Delhi once again proved it is the ultimate meeting ground for global minds. Watch this space closely. The partnerships forged in that hotel ballroom will undoubtedly shape global industries for years to come.

हिंदी झी5 वरही होणार प्रसारण

मुंबई, 16 सप्टेंबर 2026: झी टीव्हीने आज मुंबईत एका विशेष पत्रकार परिषदेत लोकप्रिय आणि प्रतिष्ठित गायन रिअॅलिटी शो ‘सा रे ग म प’ च्या नवीन पर्वाची घोषणा केली. संगीताचा उत्सव साजरा करणाऱ्या ‘हिंदुस्तान का संगीतस्थान’ या संकल्पनेवर आधारित या नवीन पर्वाची झलक यावेळी माध्यमांना दाखवण्यात आली. तसेच, अत्याधुनिक व्हर्च्युअल रिअॅलिटी (VR) अनुभवाच्या माध्यमातून ‘सा रे ग म प 2026’ च्या भव्य आणि आकर्षक नव्या सेटचे प्रथम दर्शनही घडवण्यात आले. ह्या शो चा प्रीमियर 19 सप्टेंबर 2026 रोजी होणार असून हा कार्यक्रम दर शनिवार आणि रविवारी रात्री 9:30 वाजता झी टीव्ही आणि हिंदी झी5 वर प्रेक्षकांच्या भेटीला येणार आहे.

जवळपास तीन दशकांची समृद्ध परंपरा, अस्सल संगीत आणि विलक्षण गायक प्रतिभेला व्यासपीठ देण्याचा वारसा जपणाऱ्या ‘सा रे ग म प’च्या नव्या पर्वात प्रेक्षकांना पारंपरिक गायन स्पर्धेपलीकडचा एक भव्य संगीत अनुभव मिळणार आहे. नेत्रदीपक 360 अंशांचा मंच, 100 हून अधिक संगीतकार आणि विशाल कोरस समूहाच्या सहभागामुळे हा कार्यक्रम दूरचित्रवाणीवरील एका भव्य लाईव्ह कॉन्सर्टचा अनुभव देणार आहे. त्याचबरोबर भारतीय संगीत परंपरेचे वैभव, विविधता आणि समृद्ध सांगीतिक वारसा नव्या पर्वातून प्रभावीपणे प्रेक्षकांसमोर सादर केला जाणार आहे.

सुमारे तीन दशकांपासून ‘सा रे ग म प’ हा कार्यक्रम गायन क्षेत्रातील नवोदित प्रतिभेचा शोध घेणारे, त्यांना घडवणारे आणि त्यांच्या कलेचा गौरव करणारे विश्वासार्ह व्यासपीठ म्हणून ओळखला जातो. या कार्यक्रमाची लोकप्रियता टिकून राहण्यामागील सर्वांत मोठे कारण म्हणजे बदलत्या काळानुसार आणि प्रेक्षकांच्या आवडीनिवडींनुसार स्वरूपात बदल झाले तरी अस्सल संगीत आणि खऱ्या गायक प्रतिभेला त्यांनी दिलेले सातत्यपूर्ण प्राधान्य हे आहे. याच समृद्ध वारशाला पुढे नेत झी टीव्ही आता संगीताला पूर्णपणे समर्पित असे एक स्वतंत्र विश्व उभारत आहे. येथे ध्वनी, संगीतकौशल्य, सादरीकरण आणि दृश्यरचना अशा प्रत्येक घटकाची सांगड घालून संगीतकलेचा भव्य उत्सव साजरा करण्यात येणार आहे.

या पर्वात संगीतविश्वातील चार दिग्गज गुरु - शंकर महादेवन, कुमार सानू, नीति मोहन आणि जावेद अली यांची उपस्थिती विशेष आकर्षण ठरणार आहे. विविध संगीतप्रकारांतील त्यांच्या प्रदीर्घ अनुभवाचा लाभ स्पर्धकांना मिळणार असून ते केवळ सादरीकरणांचे परीक्षण करणार नाहीत, तर संपूर्ण स्पर्धेदरम्यान आपल्या ज्ञानाचा, अनुभवाचा आणि दृष्टीकोनाचा खजिना स्पर्धकांसोबत वाटून त्यांना मार्गदर्शनही करणार आहेत. यंदाच्या पर्वाचे सूत्रसंचालन अभिनेता श्रेयस तळपदे करणार असून त्यांच्या उपस्थितीमुळे या भव्य संगीतसोहळ्याला आणखी रंगत प्राप्त होणार आहे.

ह्या नव्या पर्वाविषयी बोलताना झी एंटरटेनमेंट एंटरप्रायझेस लिमिटेड (झील) चे मुख्य कंटेंट अधिकारी राघवेंद्र हुन्सूर म्हणाले, 

"‘सा रे ग म प’ हे झीने भारताला दिलेले सर्वात जुने आणि विश्वासार्ह वचन आहे. जवळपास तीन दशकांपासून ही मालिका अस्सल संगीत आणि खऱ्या गायक प्रतिभेचे प्रतीक म्हणून ओळखली जाते. या काळात तिने अशी कामगिरी केली आहे, जी कोणतेही व्यासपीठ किंवा कोणताही अल्गोरिदम करू शकत नाही. तिने भारतीय संगीताला स्वतःची प्रतिभा ओळखण्याची संधी दिली आहे. झीमध्ये आमचा विश्वास आहे की कोणतीही प्रतिष्ठित मालमत्ता काळानुसार विकसित होत राहिली पाहिजे आणि स्वतःला नव्याने सादर केले पाहिजे, पण त्याचवेळी तिला खास बनवणाऱ्या मूलभूत मूल्यांशीही प्रामाणिक राहिले पाहिजे. आम्ही केवळ काळाच्या ओघात महत्त्व टिकवून ठेवण्याचा प्रयत्न करत नाही, तर दीर्घकाळ टिकणाऱ्या सांस्कृतिक संस्था घडवतो.

यंदाच्या पर्वात आम्ही आणखी एक गायन रिअॅलिटी शो तयार करण्यापेक्षा संगीताला पूर्णपणे समर्पित असे एक संपूर्ण विश्व उभारण्याचा प्रयत्न केला आहे. आपल्या मातीशी आणि संगीताशी घट्ट जोडलेली नवी पिढी, त्यांच्या प्रवासाला दिशा देणारे आणि त्यांची प्रतिभा घडवणारे असामान्य संगीतगुरू, तसेच शंभरहून अधिक कलाकारांचा भव्य वाद्यवृंद, ज्यामुळे प्रत्येक आवाजाला त्याच्या स्वप्नांइतकीच मोठी झेप घेण्याची संधी मिळते. भारतीय संगीताची समृद्ध परंपरा आणि वैविध्य हे या पर्वाचे केंद्रस्थान आहे. संगीतकला ज्या भव्यतेची, दर्जाची आणि सन्मानाची हक्कदार आहे, तीच भव्यता, संगीतकौशल्य आणि वैविध्य या पर्वातून अनुभवायला मिळणार आहे. कारण आमच्या मते साधेपणा आणि भव्यता या परस्परविरोधी गोष्टी नाहीत. 

‘हिंदुस्तान का संगीतस्थान’ या संकल्पनेमागे हाच विचार आहे. हे असे पर्व आहे जिथे कलाकार, संगीतकार आणि स्वतः संगीतच केंद्रस्थानी असणार आहे. हे केवळ गायकांचा शोध घेण्याचे व्यासपीठ नाही, तर भारतीय संगीताला स्वतःचे घर सापडण्याचे ठिकाण आहे."

नवीन पर्वाविषयी बोलताना झी टीव्हीचे मुख्य चॅनल अधिकारी मंगेश कुलकर्णी म्हणाले, 

"झी टीव्ही आज प्राइम टाईममध्ये निर्विवादपणे आघाडीवर असून हिंदी जीईसी क्षेत्रातील अव्वल तीन कार्यक्रमांचे घर बनले आहे. हे यश आमच्या प्रेक्षकांनी दिलेल्या भरभरून प्रेमाचे प्रतीक आहे आणि त्यांच्या विश्वासासोबत येणाऱ्या जबाबदारीची जाणीवही करून देते. ‘सा रे ग म प’चा वारसा तीन दशकांहून अधिक काळाचा आहे. या प्रतिष्ठित कार्यक्रमाला पुन्हा प्रेक्षकांसमोर आणताना, त्याची ओळख आणि आत्मा कायम राखत त्याला त्याच्या भव्यतेला साजेशा नव्या स्वरूपात सादर करण्याचा आम्ही प्रयत्न केला आहे. म्हणूनच तो आजही भारतातील सर्वाधिक लोकप्रिय गायन मंचांपैकी एक आहे. ‘सा रे ग म प’सारख्या दैदिप्यमान वारशाला नव्याने सादर करताना प्रेक्षकांच्या अपेक्षा किती मोठ्या असतात याची आम्हाला पूर्ण जाणीव आहे. यंदाच्या पर्वात आमचा प्रयत्न केवळ त्या अपेक्षा पूर्ण करण्याचा नाही, तर त्या ओलांडण्याचा आहे. भव्य मंच, लाइव्ह कॉन्सर्टचा अनुभव देणारे सादरीकरण, 100 हून अधिक संगीतकारांचा थेट सहभाग आणि संगीत क्षेत्रातील दिग्गजांचा परीक्षक व मार्गदर्शक म्हणून सहभाग अशा प्रत्येक बाबीची रचना प्रेक्षकांना याआधी कधीही न अनुभवलेला संगीताचा अनुभव देण्यासाठी करण्यात आली आहे. मात्र, या सर्व भव्यतेच्या केंद्रस्थानी ‘सा रे ग म प’ची मूळ ओळख कायम आहे. हे असे व्यासपीठ आहे जिथे प्रतिभा स्वतः बोलते, स्वप्नांना स्वर मिळतात आणि संगीतच सर्वात महत्त्वाचे असते. म्हणूनच ‘सा रे ग म प’ हे ‘हिंदुस्तान का संगीतस्थान’ होते, आहे आणि कायम राहील."

ह्या नवीन पर्वाविषयी बोलताना हिंदी झी5 च्या बिझनेस हेड आणि अँड टीव्हीच्या मुख्य चॅनल अधिकारी कावेरी दास म्हणाल्या, 

"‘सा रे ग म प’ हा झीच्या नॉन-फिक्शन कंटेंटमधील मानाचा तुरा आहे आणि भारतीय मनोरंजनविश्वातील सर्वाधिक लोकप्रिय संगीत फ्रँचायझींपैकी एक आहे. अनेक दशकांपासून या कार्यक्रमाने प्रामाणिकपणा आणि असामान्य गायक प्रतिभेच्या शोधासाठी असलेल्या अढळ वचनबद्धतेच्या जोरावर आपला समृद्ध वारसा निर्माण केला आहे. प्रत्येक पर्वासोबत या कार्यक्रमाने स्वतःसाठी नवे मापदंड निश्चित केले आहेत आणि यंदाचे पर्वही त्याला अपवाद नाही. भव्य सादरीकरण, संगीतक्षेत्रातील दिग्गज मार्गदर्शक, तसेच मंचावर झळकणारी अप्रतिम प्रतिभा अशा प्रत्येक घटकाची रचना प्रेक्षकांना आतापर्यंतचा सर्वोत्तम अनुभव देण्यासाठी करण्यात आली आहे. आज प्रेक्षक अर्थपूर्ण, दर्जेदार आणि सांस्कृतिकदृष्ट्या जवळची असलेली मनोरंजन सामग्री शोधत असताना, ‘सा रे ग म प’ने आपले वेगळेपण कायम राखले आहे. यंदाचे पर्व या कार्यक्रमाचे भारतातील सर्वाधिक लोकप्रिय आणि विश्वासार्ह संगीत रिअॅलिटी फ्रँचायझी म्हणून असलेले स्थान आणखी मजबूत करेल, याची आम्हाला खात्री आहे. 

हिंदी झी5 साठी हा अभिमानाचा क्षण आहे की, अनेक पिढ्यांतील संगीतप्रेमींना प्रेरणा देणाऱ्या या प्रतिष्ठित कार्यक्रमाचे आम्ही डिजिटल घर आहोत. ‘सा रे ग म प’ आता आपल्या सर्वांत भव्य स्वरूपात परतत असताना भारतीय संगीताच्या समृद्ध वारशाचा गौरव करणारे आणि संगीत रिअॅलिटी मनोरंजनाची व्याप्ती व महत्त्वाकांक्षा नव्याने परिभाषित करणारे हे पर्व प्रेक्षकांपर्यंत पोहोचवण्यासाठी आम्ही अत्यंत उत्सुक आहोत."

‘हिंदुस्तान का संगीतस्थान’ सह सा रे ग म प आपल्या समृद्ध वारशाला नव्या युगात घेऊन येत आहे. एक असे जग जिथे कलाकारांवर प्रकाशझोत टाकला जातो, संगीतकारांच्या कलेला योग्य दाद मिळते आणि संगीताच्या महानतेला साजेशी भव्यता प्राप्त होते.

‘सा रे ग म प 2026’चा प्रीमियर होत आहे 19 सप्टेंबर 2026 रोजी; दर शनिवार आणि रविवार रात्री 9:30 वाजता फक्त झी टीव्ही आणि हिंदी झी5 वर!

*Breath of Hope”: Mumbai Doctors Help Paralysed Man Breathe Independently After Six Months on a Ventilator*

*Breath of Hope”: Mumbai Doctors Help Paralysed Man Breathe Independently After Six Months on a Ventilator*

*Navi Mumbai* : In a remarkable neuro-rehabilitation success story, Wockhardt Hospitals Mumbai Central helped a 38-year-old man regain the ability to breathe independently after spending nearly six months dependent on a ventilator following a severe cervical spinal cord injury.

The patient, a resident of Hyderabad, had suffered a devastating cervical spinal cord injury following a major accident that left him paralysed below the neck. The injury resulted in complete loss of movement and sensation in his limbs and, most critically, took away his ability to breathe independently.

Initially admitted to an intensive care unit in Hyderabad, he spent nearly two months on continuous ventilator support and remained dependent on assisted breathing for almost six months despite treatment at multiple healthcare centers. Doctors had reportedly informed the family that prolonged ventilator dependence could be unavoidable.

Determined to explore further options, the family approached Dr. Manish Baldia, Consultant Functional Neurosurgeon at Wockhardt Hospitals Mumbai Central, known for his expertise in advanced neuromodulation and phrenic nerve stimulation procedures.

After detailed assessment, the patient was shifted to Mumbai under specialised medical supervision. Attempts to gradually reduce ventilator support revealed dangerously high carbon dioxide retention levels, confirming that he was still unable to breathe adequately on his own.

Following evaluation, Dr.Manish Baldia performed a highly specialised phrenic nerve stimulation procedure, an advanced intervention designed to stimulate the diaphragm by activating the phrenic nerve responsible for breathing.

The response was remarkable. Within just three to four days after the procedure, the patient began showing improvement, and by the third week he was stable enough to be shifted out of the ICU.

"In high cervical spinal cord injuries, communication between the brain and breathing muscles gets disrupted. Through phrenic nerve stimulation, we attempt to bypass that interruption and directly activate the diaphragm so the patient can gradually regain independent breathing," said *Dr. Manish Baldia, Consultant Functional Neurosurgeon, Wockhardt Hospitals Mumbai Central*.

He further added, "While this procedure does not reverse the spinal cord injury itself, restoring independent breathing significantly improves quality of life. It allows patients to communicate better, actively participate in rehabilitation and reduce prolonged dependence on critical care support."

Commenting on the significance of the case, *Dr. Virendra Chauhan, Centre Head, Wockhardt Hospitals Mumbai Central*, said, "This case reflects how advanced medical expertise and innovation can transform outcomes even in highly challenging situations. Such interventions are opening new possibilities in neuro-rehabilitation and bringing hope to patients and families facing long-term challenges."

Though the patient continues rehabilitation because of the severity of the spinal cord injury, the impact has been life-changing. He can now breathe independently, speak comfortably with his family and even sing again — something unimaginable just weeks earlier.

The case is believed to be among Mumbai’s first phrenic nerve stimulation procedures performed to restore independent breathing in a patient with severe cervical spinal cord injury, opening new possibilities in advanced neuro-rehabilitation in India.

The success story is now offering renewed hope to patients and families living with severe spinal cord injuries and prolonged ventilator dependence proving that even after months on a ventilator, breathing independence may still be possible.
