Club Name: Svastha
About The club
Svastha is the Wellness club of IIIT Sri City. It is one of the newly established clubs in 2021. Svastha focusses on physical development, mental development, health and nutrition of students. Students have a lot to cope up with - academics, extra curriculars, projects, internships and have to keep hustling all the time. There can be moments when we are stressed, let down or just need a break to be with ourselves. A small refreshing break helps us get back to our work easily. Hence, Svastha will focus on developing discipline and improving the physical and mental health of students, helping them to be better at academics and lead a pleasurable college life.
