and cultures. Festivals provide an opportunity for students to learn about and appreciate different

cultures, traditions, and beliefs. By celebrating festivals, students can promote diversity and inclusivity in

the college community. JU celebrates each festival with high energy and enthusiasm. A student who is

far away from his home can feel the glory of each festival at JU. The best thing about JU is all the

festivals that are organized and executed are student driven which makes it more fun, enjoyable and

astonishing. The biggest annual festival of JU is JU Rhythm which is a three days program where

different activities of technical, cultural, sports, Business and media are organized and participants all

over India come and show their presence and win exciting rewards. Celebrities and great personalities

come and interact with students. This time in JU Rhythm'23, the theme is Indian culture and art. It

signifies different colors and diversities we are having in India. The unique and identical art and heritage

of India add many beautiful stories to Indian history. Festivals bring people together and provide a sense

of belonging to the college community. They create a shared experience and a feeling of unity, which

can help students form friendships and social connections. Festivals often involve creative activities such

as decorating, designing, and performing. These activities can help students develop their creativity and

express themselves in new and exciting ways.College life can be stressful, and festivals can provide a

welcome break from academic pressures. They provide an opportunity for students to relax, have fun,

and recharge their batteries. JU is always best in providing students a platform to showcase their
