Ventures
All the participant students are required to complete and submit an assigned project. The project includes compilation of material (photos, anecdotes, etc.) regarding the contribution of Sants (Saints) in social reforms. The project also includes compilation of cuttings from newspapers and magazines. Students have to collect 20 news items, 4 general articles, 2 column articles and 10 readers’ opinion articles related with any two of the given subjects. The goal behind this project is to stimulate the reading habit and to compel students to read newspapers and magazines regularly, and thereby to make them keep themselves abreast and update with current issues. Along with this, in the project, participant students write an article about any Sant (Saint) in their own handwriting.
