On May 31st, ‘World No Tobacco Day’, the students of IGIDS made a pledge to quit tobacco at Lulu Mall with a ‘flash mob’ and a skit on the theme-‘Say No To Tobacco’. An oral screening for diagnosing oral problems was also conducted to about eight hundred people gathered around. This was a part of the program ‘IAOMP National Conference, 2019’ at Trivandrum in which the institution collaborated along with Indian Association of Oral and Maxillofacial Pathologists. The Indira Gandhi Group of Institutions gives much importance to social service as well as education. During the deadly floods, which Kerala faced during the past years, the students organised a Relief Campaign which was a great help to the needy during the hard times.
