Deepa Colouring, Decoration, and Donation Activity by Fine Arts and Alumni Association

October 17, 2025

In connection with the celebration of the Deepavali Festival, the Alumni Association of Besant Evening College organized Deepa Colouring and Deepa Decoration Competitions for the students. The competitions were conducted separately for both the Professional Batch and the Evening Batch at different timings to ensure enthusiastic participation from all students.

Participants showcased their creativity and festive spirit through beautifully designed and decorated diyas, adding colour and joy to the festive atmosphere of the college. Winners were announced from both batches, and their artistic efforts were widely appreciated. The event successfully encouraged artistic expression and cultural celebration among the students, making the occasion of Deepavali more vibrant and memorable.

As part of this initiative, the students of Besant Evening College, in association with the Alumni Association, prepared and decorated 160 beautiful diyas, which were donated to Chethana Child Development Centre, Mangalore. This gesture aimed to share the joy of the festival with the special children and help them celebrate Deepavali in a bright and cheerful manner.

The diyas were graciously handed over by Smt. Lalitha G. Mallya (Correspondent), Dr. Parashuram G. Malage (Principal), Dr. Prasanna Kumar M. G. (IQAC Coordinator), Smt. Srividya B. (Alumni Association In-charge), Smt. Sushma (Women’s Cell In-charge), and Alumni Members Mr. Aditha Shetty and Mr. Rithesh Shetty.

This thoughtful initiative beautifully embodied the spirit of sharing, compassion, and community involvement that Besant Evening College upholds, spreading light and happiness during the festive season.
