Among Top Nursing Colleges in Punjab, Desh Bhagat University Faculty of Nursing students organized an awareness programme on Breast Feeding. The programme was aimed at creating mass awareness regarding the importance of mother's milk for the children. The week long programme highlighted the benefits of breast feeding in growth and development of the children. The experts explained in detail how mother's milk created immunity in the children to fight a number of diseases and how it contributed to the physical and mental health of the new born babies.


Giving more details, Dr. Ramandeep Kaur Dhillon (Director, Faculty of Nursing) informed that to make people aware, nursing students visited some local areas in the form of mini rallies and they were holding Colourful banners and placards with awareness messages.  Apart from this, the students also performed a play on breast feeding and provided awareness about the importance and advantages of breast feeding for mother as well as for children.
