Shri Veer Pulikeshi Rural Ayurvedic Medical College, Hospital & Research Center, Badami, organized a Drawing Competition for Primary and Middle School students from Class 5 to Class 10 on 13 August 2026 at the Central Library Hall, SVPRAMC Badami. The programme was organized by the Department of Kaumarbhritya & NSS Unit as part of Swachhata Pakhwada–2026, under the theme “Towards a Clean India.” The initiative aimed to create awareness among young students about cleanliness, hygiene, environmental protection and responsible citizenship through creativity and artistic expression.
The programme also reflected the strong connection between Swachhata and the principles of Ayurveda. Ayurveda gives importance to preventive health, personal hygiene, healthy habits and a clean environment through concepts associated with Swasthavritta. A healthy environment plays an important role in supporting physical and mental well-being and preventing illness. By integrating Ayurvedic values with the Swachhata Pakhwada campaign, the programme emphasized that clean surroundings, healthy habits and responsible living form an important foundation for a healthy society.
The programme was conducted in the presence of Dr. Shashikant B. Nidagundi, Professor & HOD, Department of Dravyaguna Vigyan; Dr. Ashok Akki, Professor & HOD, Department of Kaumarbhritya; and Dr. Amareshappa, Programme Officer, NSS Unit, along with faculty members, NSS volunteers and participating students. The initiative successfully brought together creativity, health awareness, environmental responsibility and Ayurvedic values, inspiring students to become active contributors towards a cleaner and greener society. Through this programme, SVPRAMC Badami reaffirmed its commitment to community awareness and the promotion of healthy living, carrying forward the message that Swachhata is an essential step towards Swasthya.
