With an aim to entertain the neglected children of the slum dwellers, Darshan Udyog Samuha organised `one-day fun-day’ (anand utsav) programme along with drawing competition exclusively for them at the gardenin Kote Kere (fort lake) premises besides BUDA office in Belgaum on Sunday for the children from the Slums. These neglected children did play and paint just like other children of their age today. For many of them it was the first time they held the crayons in their hand but this never bothered them from drawing their mind out on the canvas.
As many as 64 children of slum dwellers participated in the programme. They exhibited their talent in drawing competition, creating beautiful landscape pictures. Noted artist Jayashree Achrekar was the judge of the competition.MCK_0574
