Conscious water usage in the wider community

An extremely informative event was held to aware the students against the wastage of water by the students of St Luke’s. Nukkad Natak on the topic of ‘Save the water’ was played at Shoolini University. A very relevant issue our society faces these days especially the depletion of groundwater, and the throwing of waste in the water bodies of the Himalyan region. Messages from similar age groups are affected more compared to the guidelines given by the seminars and conferences. Ankur Saxena ‘Bashar’ guided the students with the act. The chancellor motivated and encouraged the students and urged them to continue coming to the university with such a powerful act. He also said that - We at Shoolini stand with the cause and being an educational institute understand our duty to instill good values and spread awareness against such concern which will surely be a disaster if not controlled in near times.
