NSS Volunteers showcased their creativity and understanding of the theme through colourful and informative posters. Their artwork beautifully depicted the importance of Aanganwadis as centres for nutrition, health, early childhood care and education, while emphasising that ensuring the well-being and development of every child is a shared responsibility of families, communities and society.

The posters conveyed the message that proper nutrition alone is not sufficient; children also require love, interaction, play, communication and early stimulation for their overall development.Principal of the college, Prof. Sudha Katyal appreciated the efforts of the NSS Volunteers and encouraged students to actively participate in community-oriented initiatives. She emphasised that awareness regarding nutrition, early childhood care and stimulation can contribute significantly towards building a healthier and more developed generation.The programme reflected the college's continued commitment towards nutrition awareness, early childhood development, community engagement and the objectives of Poshan Maah 2026.
