Here’s the schedule of the event:

“This is an initiative to engage our citizens creatively and at the same time to create awareness about the ongoing crisis. These days, most of the people who are creative and innovative are sitting idle due to the lockdown. Through this platform, they can learn and share their ideas or videos to us, which we can share in our social media platforms”, said BMC Commissioner Prem Chandra Choudhary.
