The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) has issued instructions to all its affiliated schools in which it has asked the schools to observe ‘Vigilance Awareness Week’ from October 29 to November 3, 2018. This year, the theme of the Vigilance Awareness Week is 'Eradicate Corruption-Build a New India'.
In the instructions, CBSE has asked the schools to conduct activities during the week which reflect the same theme. The circular also stressed on sustaining these activities over a period of time so that moral and ethical values can be ingrained permanently in the younger minds.
