Children at Rashtrapati Bhawan
Seher organized a cultural programme at the Rashtrapati Bhawan on the 14th November 2003 to celebrate the Children’s Day wherein young Odissi dancers performed along with slum children presented a Puppet show. Seher showcased three young Odissi dancers who performed a specially choreographed short item for the event.
These children were brought in from Govindpuri Bhoomiheen slum clusters and most of them were studying in Kathashala, an institution for the slum dwellers of J.J.Colony. These children performed a play based on the theme of elephants getting endangered and a puppet show on water conservation in front of President A.P.J. Abdul Kalam and 600 other children from slum areas. For the children from Govindpuri slums, this perhaps will be the first opportunity to showcase their talents in front of the President of India.
