Coordinated by Associate Professor Dr Anitha Marina Colaco and Assistant Professor Aparna Palimaru of the Department of Electrical and Electronic Engineering, the workshop enabled each student to build their own Solar Lamp which they then retained for their use. The students then pledged themselves to “Non Violence against the environment and to promote the use of solar lights”.
