National Youth Day is celebrated every year on 12th January, to remark the birth anniversary of Swami Vivekananda and his contribution to India’s freedom movement and regeneration of nationalism, which is immense on the occasion of this celebration. The Department of Marine Catering and Hotel Management organized an extension activity to create awareness among the school students on “Consuming Alcohol and Smoke Free Environment” on 12.1.23. As a part of the extension activity, 3 faculty members and 10 students from II MC&HM actively participated and created awareness for school students. They got an insight into how the young generation of today’s world can lead a fulfilling life by following Swami Vivekananda’s thoughts. They were also taught to meditate in order to experience peace and happiness in their day-to-day life. The main objective behind the celebration is to create a better future for the country by motivating the youth and spreading the ideas of the Swami Vivekananda. The activity of the students is appreciated by the school Principal and teachers.
