Nowroze Baug “normalcy”

"Children were seen displaying their enthusiasm with colorful rangolis at the badminton court with the youngest participant being just four years old,” noted Nowroze Baug Play Centre (NPC) honorary secretary Yasmin Engineer in an email sent to Parsiana.
With the city returning back to "normalcy,” the NPC and Nowrosjee N. Wadia Welfare League (NNWWL) jointly organized activities in their colony, the oldest of the five Wadia baugs in the city. The rangoli competition on October 31, 2021 witnessed the celebration of Diwali with colors and diyas by the children and adults. Twenty-four adult participants were free to select any theme based on current topics with an appropriate message.
