Theme: Connecting the disconnected.

TEDx Dav college is happening for the very first time. Excited as students we set out in the world with the aim to set controversial ideas into motion for the future of the country. It's a challenging and courageous journey but we believe in unity and brotherhood, and advance hand in hand with our comrades from all walks of life.

With our eyes set right ahead for the future, we are willing to give it all for what it takes to improve the cancer ridden system of our country. As the truth speaking Veteran Journalist Anand Swaroop Verma says - " The system does not want you to develop analytical thinking.If you do so, you would expose all the flaws and contradicts of the order we live in. We as journalists would expose the system no matter what it takes."

We are walking on the same glorious path and believe in the vision that authority is not the truth but truth is the authority.

Join the movement for a glorious dawn for our country.
