Students sat with great gusto eagerly listening to the words of their much awaited prodigious guest. Deeya enthusiastically described about her reminisced expedition to the summit.
She grabbed the attention of the students by giving some interesting facets of her journey. The seminar went on to its disparate level during the interactive session with students who had numerous queries on mountaineering.

The seminar ended with vote of thanks and students were grateful to their Principal Mrs. Asha Sharma for organizing such an amazing seminar offering a platform to enrich their knowledge on anomalous things of life.
