Cultural activities for human beings are very important. It also plays an important role for the development of human personality because the overall personality of a student can not be achieved through academic activity, but it requires some cultural activities too.Thus, the importance of cultural activities lies in preparing students for real life as well as strengthening their personal skills.
Cultural activities in the campus are promoted through various cultural clubs namely: Debating, Drama, Film, Fine Arts, Literary, Music and Dance, Nature and WildLife, Photography, and UNESCO. These activities are under the supervision of the elected student’s conveners. The members of their executive committee who are elected every year by the student members of the respective clubs also observe these activities.
The JNU has a Culture Committee headed by a Cultural Coordinator to promote the functioning of the clubs and organizing of various cultural activities from time to time.
