CBSE's 3-day science exhibition kicks off:
The Central Board of Secondary Education's (CBSE) regional level science exhibition was inaugurated at DAV Senior Secondary School, Sector 15 on Wednesday. About 70 schools from Haryana, Punjab, Chandigarh and Himachal Pradesh took part. The visiting schools came with their models, projects and exhibits on different themes. The main ones were community health and environment, landmarks in science and mathematics, ICT, energy resources and conservation and transport and waste management among others.
CBSE counsellor and school principal Rakesh Sachdeva said, "Science has become an inseparable part of our lives. We cannot envisage a life without it today, not even a moment. I wish we use science in a constructive way and not for devastation of any kind."
The students were all set to present their models and projects. More than 100 models have been presented in the exhibition on different themes.
The models were being judged by a panel of judges. The exhibition would culminate on January 30. Around 15 models would be selected and be part of national exhibition. The exhibition would be open to general public on the concluding day.
