Multicultural new year gala at BU
Bennett University came alive, on Thursday, April 11, 2019. The students, many of them first-time voters made the (Gautam Buddh Nagar) election day holiday a purposeful one by marking their respective New Year’s Day together regardless of the state they belonged to.

The grand multi-cultural event was made possible by Verve, the dance club, and Spic Macay, the cultural club of the University. The two clubs jointly organised the celebration of the traditional new years of different states of the country including Ugadi (Telugu), Gudi Padwa (Marathi) and Baisakhi (Punjabi).

Akhil Kumar, secretary of Verve, said, “We had been planning to organise a traditional day for a long time to bring together the cultural diversity of our University.”
