Unison, 2010, started with a very pertinent social message - “Water is the basis of a strong economy. Clean water means less disease, and less absences from school and work. Ample water means irrigation for crops, providing a reliable food supply. It facilitates industrial processes, allowing for increased material wealth. “This was the message that was shared by the Protons in the street play ‘Water is Our Friend’. The play depicted the scene in the life of a poor farmer who is praying to the almighty for water. His crops are dying and he is worried that the forests are also turning into arid landscapes. Listening to the prayers of the poor farmer, Lord Indra appears to him and says that he has been giving the Earth water but the water is misused by mankind. And now, he will not bestow rainfall until man realizes the importance of saving water. As Lord Indra, says this, he disappears into heaven leaving the farmer realizing the worth of conserving water. 

This was followed by the inter-collegiate presentation competition which was named as ‘Vision India 2050’. Institutions such as IIT Indore, Malwa Institute of Technology, Gujrati Innovative and Vindhya Institute of Technology participated in the competition. Each of the participants presented a brilliant depiction of development in education system and good governance for economic growth and for India to emerge as a super power by 2050. The participants focused on the significance of initiative taken by the government like Unique Identification Number, NAREGA, and JNURM.

Another event that was organized by the IT Committee of PROTON was ‘Gaming Invasion’. This event was carried on in two phases- preliminary round followed by the finale.

Fashion is not something that exists in dresses only. Fashion is in the sky, in the street, fashion has to do with ideas, the way we live or what is happening around. Keeping this in mind, the next event was the fashion show which was based on the themes ‘rough and tough’, ‘Hawai’ and ‘Halloween’.

Communicating ideas and opinions stands tantamount as the one skill that all human beings must do well to succeed in their lives. This could not be done better through a drama performance.
