As part of its latest ‘Har Sawaal Uthega’ initiative, Tata Salt is conducting a nation-wide campaign in more than 300 schools to encourage children to ask questions as they have the power to shape a better tomorrow

Ahmedabad (Gujarat) [India], January 26: Keeping the theme of ‘Desh Ki Sehat, Desh Ka Namak’ at its core, Tata Salt, a pioneer and market leader in India’s branded iodized salt segment, has launched a nationwide Republic Day campaign called Desh Ke Liye #HarSawaalUthega. With its 360-degree approach, the campaign aims to empower children by providing them with a one-of-a-kind platform to raise questions that could spark relevant conversations and nudge a societal change.

As a run up to Republic Day, the campaign has gone on-ground and aims to engage with students across India covering states like Maharashtra, Punjab, Haryana, Gujarat, Chennai, Karnataka, U.P and Rajasthan among other states.

The on-ground event was successfully conducted in Ahmedabad city in Rajasthan English Higher Secondary School with attendance of more than 250 students. Some pertinent questions were raised by the students including “Why do some people sleep on the roadside?”, “Why do people waste food in the country when many sleep hungry”, “Why do we have electricity but rural India doesn’t?” amongst others.

These questions were answered by honorable dignitaries including Srimati Darshanaben Vaghela, MLA, Asarwa Ahmedabad , Shri Sushil Agarwal (IPS), DCP Zone 3 Ahmedabad, Shri A K Khandelwal IRS, Principal Chief Commissioner Income Tax , Dr. Kanan Desai (IPS), Deputy commissioner of Police Zone -4, Ahmedabad, Gujarat, Mr. Ashokji Bafna (School Trustee) & Mr. Deepchandji Bafna (School Trustee)  More than 350 exhilarating questions were raised by the students and 50 best questions were shortlisted for the event. The jury awarded prestigious books to Top 3 students from the batch of 50. All the students who participated in the event were lauded by TATA Salt and awarded with participation certificates.

As part of the campaign, Tata Salt will organize city wide events across India covering private and government schools educating 30,000+ students and giving them a platform to raise their questions.
