Mithapur, 23 November 2023 | Tata Chemicals Society for Rural Development (TCSRD), the esteemed CSR arm of Tata Chemicals, organised a transformative event, Bal-Utsav, a talent Camp dedicated to fostering creativity and skill development among rural students.
The week-long initiative, held across 77 schools and attended by 13,318 students, was curated to encourage artistic expression and promote cultural diversity. Bal-Utsav served as a unique platform for students to discover, nurture, and instill a sense of community engagement and collaboration.

Spanning six days, Bal-Utsav featured an array of workshops and hands-on sessions encompassing drama, drawing, singing, instrument playing, mud work, and dance. The goal was to nurture talents and foster personal development among the participants, all of whom hailed from rural government schools.
