Engineering smiles on their faces

When most of their counterparts in engineering colleges across the country spend every possible moment hooked to their books and logging long hours in labs, these BE students attached to the Manipal Institute of Technology (MIT) take time out from their busy schedule to learn valuable lessons of humanity.



They invest their free time in bringing smile on the faces of scores of underprivileged children and elderly people who are destined to live in orphanages and old-age homes run by NGOs in and around the education town.
