SACAS Students Drive Awareness on Rural Development in Adopted Villages On November 23, 2024, students from S.A. College of Arts & Science (SACAS)—representing NSS, UBA, and SIRD & PR—organized an impactful awareness program during a Gram Sabha meeting in Kannampalayam and Metupalayam, villages adopted by the institution. The event, held from 10 AM to 1 PM, highlighted key government initiatives and empowered villagers to actively participate in rural development.

The program celebrated the contributions of sanitation workers and women self-help groups (SHGs) to community progress. Students educated villagers on disaster preparedness for the northeast monsoon, water quality under the Jal Jeevan Mission, and sustainable waste management practices under the Swachh Bharat Mission. They also promoted the Deen Dayal Upadhyaya Grameen Kaushalya Yojana, encouraging youth to take advantage of skill development and employment opportunities.

The initiative demonstrated SACAS’s commitment to fostering community progress, earning praise from villagers and local leaders for bridging policies with grassroots action.
