of our love of our country; the jugalbandi of which was much appreciated and enjoyed by all. ‘Significance of

Constitution in our everyday life ‘ the Ted talk by Falguni Mahajan of class XI sensitized the students on the

celebrations as our ownership and responsibility towards our country and not a mere holiday to relax. The

cultural programme was culminated by the grand finale dance on –Unity in Diversity. The Principal, Ms Sudha

Acharya in her address urged the students to observe the day as a FESTIVAL and to reorient our thought
