A university statement said, "Climate includes changes that have posed more significant challenges before the human race. The university has developed several initiatives to tackle climate change. 

The organiser of event director of the student welfare association, Vaibhav Thakare, said "These rakhis, made from waste and leftover decorative materials, reflect the university's dedication to promoting sustainable practices.

A second-year student from the Department of Travel and Tourism, Clifford Gumiresge from Zimbabwe, wrote the pledge and said, "climate change has transboundary effects.
