In a colorful display of creativity, participants painted patriotic murals, while cleanliness and beautification drives were carried out in the Municipal Committees of Ramban, Banihal, Batote, and adjoining areas—symbolizing both the aesthetic and moral spirit of “Vande Mataram.”
Adding to the fervour, a mass rally by the students and staff of Government Polytechnic College Ramban spread the message of unity and integrity.
