Students behind the scene working 

hard for the assembly backdrop

congrats to my students like sidhant for recognition

In the Russian exchange programme ,Sidhant explained I Bin(Intelligent Bin) It segregates waste automatically under three categories ie wet, dry and metallic waste .It rewards you points and after accumulating  those points the thrower gets incentive or gift.

Congratulations!!!!
