Apart from this, several special awards were given for outstanding contributions of the medical fraternity, under different categories. The jury comprised esteemed National and International experts.
Every year a world-famous luminary in the realm of Obstetrics & Gynaecology delivers this prestigious oration lecture.
The highlight of the event this year was the illuminating Oration Lecture by Dr. Ricardo Azziz, Professor, Obstetrics & Gynaecology, Medicine, and Healthcare Organization & Policy, Schools of Medicine and Public Health, University of Alabama at Birmingham, US. He previously served as CEO of the American Society for Reproductive Medicine.
Dr. Ricardo said, “Today’s gathering is not only about Dr. Stya Paul but equally about his legacy being taken forward in an extraordinary manner by Mrs. Sushma Paul Berlia and the next generation. For Dr. Stya Paul wealth creation was a means to make the world a better place.”
Dr. Ricardo explained how Metabolic syndrome can lead to complications during pregnancy which pose risk to both mother and baby. He said that managing metabolic syndrome is vital for women’s health and overall well-being, as it increases risk of developing chronic conditions such as heart disease, diabetes, stroke, liver disease etc. The lecture shed light on understanding the disease pathogenesis and approach to its management.
Mrs. Sushma Paul Berlia, Chairman, Apeejay Stya and Svran Group, said, “Dr. Ricardo Azziz not only has multiple dimensions to his personality but I would also like to mention that in him we found the kind of values that resonate with us.” Mrs. Berlia also pointed out that the real reason for setting up the commemoration awards in the name of Dr. Stya Paul is to go beyond remembering his illustrious life by cherishing the values he stood for and to take them forward. She added that along with education, Dr. Stya Paul was always deeply involved in supporting healthcare issues and the welfare of women & children.
