Van Mahotsav 2022

Van Mahotsav is an annual tree-planting movement in India, which began in 1950. On the occasion of Azadi Ka Amrit Mahotsav, NSS DBCE Unit took part in Van Mahotsav celebration on 15^th August 2022. Although the college has lush green campus with more than 35 species of trees, with great enthusiasm NSS volunteers, students, teaching and non –teaching staff planted Cashew trees in college premises as a part of this celebration. Also present were Fr. Ralin DeSouza, Rector, Fr. Kinley D’Cruz, Director,  Fr. Leo Pereira, Administrator, Dr. Neena Panandikar, Principal and Dr. Kala Nayak, Registrar.

During this tree planting Mahotsav, it was decided that not only planting the tree is enough but NSS volunteers will also take care to nurture these planted trees thereafter. The event was coordinated by Prof. Amey Tilve, Prof. Harison Cotta and Prof. Chetan Gaonkar.
