On this occasion, Director of Shriram College of Pharmacy, Dr. Girendra Kumar Gautam while addressing the students said that such programs not only make us aware of our health, but also teach us how we can take care of our body and mind and how we can live a healthy, balanced and active life. It was also said that in today's world, due to rapidly increasing pollution, indiscriminate deforestation and environmental imbalance, mankind is struggling with many new diseases and infections. These problems have a direct impact on our physical and mental health.

Along with this, Dr. Girendra Kumar also mentioned that due to the current lack of time and busy lifestyle, people are becoming careless about their health. Due to lack of time, improper diet, and absence of regular exercise, people are falling prey to serious diseases at an early age.
