Annual Day "Bhagat Singh- A Legacy Unexplored"

DPS R.N. Extension celebrated its very first Annual Day on 8 th December, 2018. The theme for
the programme was “Bhagat Singh – A Legacy Unexplored.” As the name suggests, it was
about the illustrious and most eventful life of Bhagat Singh and the part he played in India’s

story ended with a message that Bhagat Singh might have died on the gallows but his spirit still
lives in the hearts of the patriotic Indians.
