To celebrate Prajwal’s achievement, the college management, along with teachers and students, organized a procession from the college premises to the Belthangadi bus stand. The procession featured an open vehicle, with Prajwal’s parents in attendance, and various organizations came together to honor him.

The event saw the presence of dignitaries, including Management Board President Sumanth Kumar Jain, Secretary Abhiram, Principal Dr. Naveen Kumar M., Sahana Jain from the Governing Body, Administrator Kirtinidhi, Shantiraj Jain, Professors Srinidhi Raj, Nisha Pujari, Wilson Talthotti, Keshav Rao, Dr. Satyanarayan Bhatt, Ishwar Sharma, Jaisa Antony, Chiju Prakash, Grishin D’Souza, Dr. Austin D’Souza, and Public Relations Officer Richard Jeevan Moras.
