Diwali – the festival of lights – is the festival that symbolizes good over evil. The festival grades itself with joy, happiness, prosperity and spreads a positive vibe everywhere. B. S.

The event was commemorated by the college dignitaries, Prof. Roop K. Khar and Prof. Shiv Kumar Yadav along with all the faculty members. The event began with the traditional lamp-lighting, followed by Goddess Laxmi pojan, elicited by the students of the institution. This was followed by a number of other programs, organized by the students, which included various events like Room Decoration, Fashion show, Musical instrument playing, Singing and Dancing, Drama and what not.
A series of competitions were also conducted to enthrall the audience and encourage the students to take part in healthy competitive activities to showcase their inner hidden talents.
