Calling Bell with Swachtha Tone
He viewed the calling bell with Swacchtha tone in the presence of Chairman Manjunath Bhandary and Raghav Shetty, CEO, RDL Technologies and lauded them for their interest in the project.
This is an initiative by Dr. M R Ravi, CEO, Dakshina Kannada Zilla Panchayat towards cleanliness, thereby creating awareness among the general public by way of calling bell. This unique concept was presented by Dr. M R Ravi to the Sahyadri management, in the presence of faculty members and the Start-up Team during his visit to Sahyadri earlier. As a response to the concept, a team of experts from the institute converted the concept into an end product by designing a calling bell with Swacchtha tone imbibed in it. These calling bells have already been installed and are in use at the Dakshina Kannada Zilla Panchayat office. As a part of the pilot programme, Sahyadri has expressed its willingness to partially sponsor for the cause in making of such calling bells.
