6 first aid and quick action. We have prepared PPT presentations and we will be conducting focused trainings for women and students from second week of July. This experience makes us feel that the Power Point Presentation is the effective way of convincing people and making them educate about the said subject.

Thus we request you to provide at least 3 laptops for communication with the community people.
