The Annual Day was held on 4 th Aug. 2017. The inaugural prayer dance set the mood for the program by transporting the audience into a receptive mode. The  theme was the musical “Annie”. It portrayed the emotions of Love and Humanity very strongly. It brought live into the life of a person who was hard hearted and money minded. The soul rending choir added life to the 700 strong participant event. The backdrop turned the stage into a reality.
