This would also give a chance to the girls to decide what changes they would like to bring in society, if given such an opportunity. It is an indicative collectorship wherein they will get to experience the day with a new perspective.
It is to provide them exposure towards governance and administration as “seeing is believing”. They get an exposure for a day and we also make them write a diary wherein they note down their experience and their vision for society.
