THEME: INCREDIBLE INDIA

“India is a vast country; it contains multitudes.”

Country as diverse as India is symbolized by the

diversity of its culture. The plurality and

multiplicity of the Indian Culture is evident to the

whole world as India has one of the world’s

largest collections of songs, music, dance,

theatre, folk traditions, performing arts, rites and

rituals, languages, dialects, paintings and

writings that are known, as the ‘Intangible

Cultural Heritage’ (ICH) of humanity. India

believes in the adage “Unity in diversity”. People

of different states are living together with

different language, culture, and heritage.

Dear children to understand the rich heritage of India and their ancient life style,

ways of entertainment etc, you need to visit the famous heritage of India. Doing it in

the right spirit with enthusiasm which will make it a great learning experience. Make

sure that your work is neat, presentable, and original and conforms to the

requirement.

1. Prevent ourselves and others from scribbling on the walls.

2. Participating in the regular Cleanliness Drives.

3. Being a part of the ‘Adopt a Heritage’ initiative

4. Spreading awareness around about these monuments and their importance.

In today’s competitive world, we have to preserve the monuments and showcase them to the next

generation as the contributions or achievements of our ancestors. A little effort from our side can

create drastic changes that will make the present and the future generations of the country and the
