The students of std X& XII displayed colourful and informative placards and banners stressing upon the need to follow certain rules which read as follows: Safe driving saves lives, Fast drive could be the last drive, Stop accidents before they stop you, Helmet for all, Use seatbelts and so on.
The awareness drive was very well carried out which was informative for all. It drove the message of safe driving and to follow proper road rules. The management, who has always been encouraging and supportive for this kind of cause, appreciated the efforts put in by the students as well as the teachers. They were advised to conduct such awareness programme more frequently and to ensure greater student participation.
