Some are designed to get kids to open up and talk about themselves, however at Bilaliya Educational Institute, as per its past practice the first day has been kept a fun filled environmental awareness day,” the organisers said .
In this regard, BEI held a special event at its Lal Bazar Campus where the secretary general of KCCA&I & Convener EPG Faiz Bakshi, Executive Committee Member KCC&I & President TAAK Farooq Kuthoo and Executive Committee Member KCC&I Ishfaq participated as guests of honour. “The guests apart from being keen environment enthusiasts are recently elected in KCC&I executive body.
