This year, we have organized various programs, including drawing competitions and initiatives where children act as Officer-in-Charge for a day."

We addressed important issues like cyber awareness, human trafficking, drug abuse, and other topics, educating and sensitizing the public. Today's event, the 'Sit and Draw' competition, was a significant and well-received program. I encouraged the children to dream big, work towards their goals, and move forward with confidence," he added.
