Every human aspires for a healthy and happy life.

But very few work

for body-mind-soul coordination. A happy and healthy mind always
performs better and enriches the society.

Inculcating such habits as health, personal hygiene and positive

attitude in the youth will certainly improve the quality of our
environment. The philosophy of the father of the nation, Mahatama
Gandhi is based on cleanliness and related personal hygiene which
says that spiritual and religious development of a man hinges upon
the cleanliness. He had even said that ‘Sanitation is more important
than independence’.
