It is rightly said that swimming is an unparalleled form of exercise that offers extensive benefits both for the body and mind. It is a holistic way of life that blends fitness with enjoyment and relaxation with exhilaration.

The Swimming Championship held at Hemkund (Swimming Pool Area) captivated the audience with a display of athleticism and spirited competition. Swimmers from the four houses that are, Lata Mangeshkar House, Kalam House, Dhyaanchand House, and Devi Ahilya House, dove into the pool with determination, showcasing their skills across various disciplines.
