Chitkara University, Punjab has always been a leap ahead in organising activities for the protection of the environment. We got the opportunity to be the regional partners for National Environment Youth Parliament-2022 and we hosted young minds from various colleges/universities of J&K, Himachal Pradesh and Punjab. NEYP-2022 is a platform created by Manav Rachna International University to discuss the measures that can be taken for the conservation of our environment.
The regional level began by welcoming the dignitaries who graced the event with their presence. Dignitaries from the National Coordinator University of NEYP-2022 were present in the regional level.
