Winston Churchill once said “In the arena of debate, the clash of ideas is the forge where truth is shaped.” Forever committed to the cause of honing intellect through an impassioned exchange of ideas, St.Joseph’s College, Prayagraj organised and hosted the SJC Model G7 Summit 2025, themed “When Global Leaders Meet”. It is the inaugural student-led diplomatic simulation that was conducted on August 12, 2025. This academic simulation included G7 nations plus guest countries Russia and China, addressing global challenges including energy security, nuclear disarmament, economic recovery, and international migration through five specialised committees.

The Opening Ceremony was graced by the presence of Honourable Justice Ajay Bhanot as the Chief Guest,who is known for his empathetic approach, consistently using his judicial platform to protect the vulnerable, and for his assertive stance against bureaucratic and systemic delays that undermine the rule of law. The ceremony’s events included a welcome of the Chief Guest, the lighting of the lamp by the Chief Guest who was accompanied by the Principal Rev.Fr.Walter D’Silva, U.S.M.
