As part of the excursion, various fun games were also organised for the students where they enthusiastically participated.
Refreshments and lunch was also catered for.
The children thoroughly enjoyed the visit and conveyed heartfelt gratitude to the Assam Rifles for undertaking such an initiative and requested for more such informative and entertaining visits in future, said AR .
