Social Connect with Sewadham Ashram in Ujjain

The university, under its social initiative, visited the Sewadham Ashram in Ujjain on 9th September 2018 . A group of students along with their mentors went to this noble abode of Sudhir Bhai Goyal who found this ashram in 1989 to support the weak and homeless and currently homes around 500 people within its safe walls . The students spent the day teaching these people the skill to sketch, dance, sing, and helped them in their daily activities. By reflecting upon the course of their day, the students understood the real-life challenges of such people and felt an igniting blaze within themselves to work for the underprivileged section of the society .
