Goel Group Celebrates 18th Foundation Day with Plantation Drive and TB Awareness Campaign

Lucknow :Goel Group of Institutions celebrated its 18th Foundation Day on July 4, 2025, with dual commitment to the environment and public health. The institution observed the day as “Plantation Day” and also extended its support to the Government of India’s TB Mukt Bharat Abhiyan through a nutritional aid initiative.

As part of its annual tradition, the faculty and staff members of the institution planted over 500 saplings across the campus, reinforcing Goel Group’s vision of creating a green, sustainable future. The plantation drive not only marked the anniversary but also reflected the institution’s long-standing dedication to environmental stewardship alongside academic excellence.

Adding a significant dimension to this year’s celebration, Goel Group of Institutions, in collaboration with the District Health Department, organized the distribution of ‘Poshan Potli’ (nutritional kits) to 50 beneficiaries. This effort was aligned with the National TB Elimination Programme (NTEP), aiming to improve the health and recovery of TB patients through protein-rich nutritional support. The initiative highlights the institute’s contribution toward India’s mission to eliminate tuberculosis by 2025.

The event took place in the Central Hall of Goel Group of Institutions and was graced by several dignitaries. Chief Guest Sri Ashok Agarwal, MLC from Sandila, was joined by Mr. Vishal Vikram Singh, Additional SP, STF (Govt. of UP), Chairman Er. Mahesh Kumar Agarwal, Vice Chairman Sri Murari Lal Agarwal, and CEO Sri Samarth Goel. Also present were Directors and Heads of Departments from GGI, Dr. A.K. Singhal (District TB Officer), Shahnawaz (Senior Treatment Supervisor), and Sri Saumitra Mishra (District PPM Coordinator).
