Ramleela Act Ram Leela was organized on 30 October 2021 at GD Goenka Public School, Purnia. Organizing Ramlila in the school just before the holy festival of Deepawali is a commendable step. The theatrical performance of Ramlila was done in a very entertaining way in the school. The children looked very cute in different characters of Ramayana. The enthusiasm of the children about the event was visible. Children from class 1 to 8 participated in this event. The story of Rama's exile to Ayodhya was shown in the play. For the all-round development of children, it is very important that they should be aware of their own civilization and culture and should be interested in it, and they should also be proud of it. Bookish knowledge becomes useless if the student remains ignorant of his culture. Therefore, this play has been staged for the all round development of the students as well as for their acting skills, singing skills and for their entertainment.
