impact on cultural, social, monetary,political, and communal life ofcountries ushering in unprecedentedchanges in all spheres.Though globalization has its ownadvantages, there are severalnegative effects as well. In India weare slowly moving towards a morewesternized culture and graduallymoving away from our Indian roots,thus it is high time we spend more
time relearning our country’s richheritage.
Abhishek Seth, alumnusof Saraswati Vidya Mandir InterCollege, Jhansi Road, and JugalDevi Saraswati Vidya Mandir,Kanpur, UP is a passionate supporterof everything Indian or ‘Swadeshi’. He
believes that our vast historical andcultural heritage is a treasure trove ofknowledge. In his bid to bring Indianscloser to their roots, the M.Tech passout from Malaviya National Institute ofTechnology, joined as a volunteerat Rajiv Dixit Sangh.

Patronizing local art andhandicrafts, using goodsproduced by Indian companies,stress on learning Indian languagesare all part of their awarenesscampaigns. Once every year a‘Bhartiya Sanskriti’ camp is organisedto promote Indian culture andheritage which is attended by peoplefrom all walks of life.
