Each one of us has to understand the importance of protecting our environment by saving at least a drop of water. Every initiative taken by each individual will contribute to the betterment of our society, our nation and the mother earth
Dr. Rajendra Singh emphasised on the fact that being socially responsible is equally important for a person to become a good professional.
