The much-awaited monsoon season Provides respite from the summer heat. However, monsoon also brings along numerous diseases every year due to harmful viruses. The humid climate, heavy rains and windy environment spreads many infectious diseases. These shows the relevance of having awareness about monsoon diseases and the ways to prevent and control it. The students of Community College conducted the awareness classes on the  topics of Chicken guinea, Dengue, Malaria, Typhoid, Hepatitis, Diarrhea, H1N1, Leptospirosis with the help of video Presentations and Power Point slides.
