JAMMU, Nov 2: visional commissioner Jammu Mr Sudhanshu Pandey today flagged off the 5th annual Renewable Energy Run from University of Jammu. The run was organized by the Jammu and Kashmir Energy Development Agency (JAKEDA) under Information and Public Awareness (I&PA) programme of Ministry for New and Renewable Energy (MNRE), Government of India.
The run started from University of Jammu and culminated at the same point after passing through Bikram Chowk, Tawi Bridge, Dogra Chowk and SK Bridge in which about 100 students from various institutions participated.
