commitment towards environment.

with the aim of imbibing greener practices among Management students who will
be the future managers in the Corporate world, so that the dream of
'sustainable development' becomes a reality
“While most people are aware that going green
is good for the Earth, they may not fully understand the extent of its impact.
Going green has several positive side effects for the environment that
contribute to cleaner water and air, preserve natural resources and reduce the
impact of global warming. Initiatives like this will help people to understand
various environmental concerns facing in our country today,” said Bhavik
Sachdev, President Eco club, ITM Business School.

students performed on different songs like Jai Ho, Rang de Basanti and ended
with Jingle bells. There were interesting games for kids and elders as a part
