The Winning Society at a glance
Ankur, S.G.T.B Khalsa College
Ankur from S.G.T.B Khalsa , proved its mettle during street theatre competitions with its play,
‘We, the people!’. The play talked about the role of active participation of an individual in a democracy where governments are formed through electoral voting. Though the message they hoped to deliver had a complex thought behind it, their mantra for success was simple, “We try and keep it simple with our deliberate attempt to creatively experiment, unlearn and start from the scratch.”
