Thousands of students turned up for the Masula Yuva Mahotsav which began on the Hindu College Grounds here on Wednesday.
Amid colourful kites flying at the venue, students took part in drawing, singing and other cultural performances. Krishna District Collector Ahmed Babu inaugurated the Mahotsav.

Ravindra greeted the students following interaction with the police and other walks of public life at the stalls. “The first edition of the Mahotsav is all about create a brand of Bandar, which once flourished with economic and political activity and a place that played a laudable role in Independence movement,” said Mr. Ravindra.
