Carrying forward its tradition of
celebrating Green Diwali, Hans Raj Mahila Maha Vidyalaya, Jalandhar launched
Beej Patakha start up under the able guidance of Principal Prof. Dr. (Mrs.)
Ajay Sareen. The start up was inaugurated by Justice (Retd.) Sh. N.K. Sud, Vice
President DAVCMC, New Delhi. Principal Dr. Ajay Sareen told that Beej Patakha
Box was a new addition to the innovative practices of HMV. Beej Patakhas were
prepared like traditional fire crackers like Sutli Bomb, Anars, Rockets,
Chakris etc. These were made of waste cotton and live seeds of Radish, Mustard,
Coriander, Spinach and peas and were packaged in recycled papers. Instead of
polluting the environment, the Beej Kapas can be sown and new plants will
emerge. Principal Dr. Ajay Sareen congratulated Dr. Anjana, Dean Innovations
& Research, Dr. Rakhi Mehta and her entire team for the unique &
innovative venture. On this occasion decorative diyas painted with bright
colours were exchanged by the students of HMV with a message of local light for
