The event was part of the silver jubilee celebrations of the Manipal Academy of Higher Education (MAHE).

The Udupi Superintendent of Police Laxman Nimbargi had his share of fun hoisting a kite and participating in other activities as well.

Dr Avinash Shetty, medical superintendent, Kasturba Hospital, Manipal, was the guest of honour. This year Tarang held a unique feature that the kites made by VSO volunteers were flown by the underprivileged children of slums and special homes.

A carnival-like atmosphere prevailed at the ground with games, music, food stalls and zumba present to cater to a variety of entertainment to make for a memorable afternoon.
