PANAAH, the annual intercollegiate festival of K.P.B Hinduja College of Commerce is organizing its social event, "GULF PRIDE SAFETY RIDE" on December 9, 2017 at K.P.B Hinduja College from 8:30 am. The main motive of this event is ‘Road Safety and the use of helmet’.

The recent road accidents are majorly due to not wearing helmets while driving. To minimize the number of accidents, we are organising this rally which will help us educate the citizens regarding safety measures and precautions. This will also inculcate the habit of using helmets.

It is a 12 km rally that will include 250 professional bikers from colleges across the city. The rally will be starting from K.P.B Hinduja College of Commerce covering Charni Road and Nariman Point, ending at K.P.B Hinduja College itself. The bikers will be wearing helmets and will follow the route with full security.

To encourage the use of helmets among bikers, Panaah’s CSR Partner-Gulf Oil Lubricants India Ltd. will distribute 250 helmets to the participants of the rally.

The Chief Guest for this event is Shri Diwakar Raote Ji, Transport Minister of Maharashtra State.

Ravi Chawla, the Managing Director of GULF Oil will be the Guest of honor for  the event. Lisa Sadanah, the helmet girl is a special invitee and Abhinav Shukla is the Guest of honor as well.

  We invite you to be a part of this event and support our cause.

However, continuous success is to set further goals, which we already have! And right from the beginning, I always felt there’s nothing we can't do. We put in the same effort into the making of each edition in terms of content, editing, photography, graphics, and printing. Right from our first issue there’s been nothing less or more. That’s why today we have received many accolades for completion of seven years in the industry from celebrities who were with us all these years. Nakuul Mehta, Ssharad Malhotraa, Gul Khan, Harneet Singh, Jasmine Singh, Preetika Rao and many more have give  their best wishes to Enlighten India.  As we are celebrating the bright 8th year of the magazine, popular television actress Mrunal Thakur, who will soon  debut in Bollywood with “Love Sonia”, dons our cover this month.
