The event aimed to equip young learners with schoolbags and stationery, ensuring they are prepared and motivated for their studies.
The program began with a warm welcome as children presented garlands and bouquets to the attending guests. The ceremony was officially inaugurated with the lighting of a traditional oil lamp, symbolizing the light of education and hope.
Village Leader of Maruthanarmadam, Mr. Nisanand, addressed the gathering, highlighting the importance of education and the role of community support in nurturing the next generation.
