Singh said that Pune is home to Ganesha. But we cannot be assured that we will be safe in our city only by praying at temples and mosques. We should keep our eyes and ears active. Only then can we prevent terrorist attacks. Students must be alert and inform the police immediately if they notice anything unusual in the colony where they reside, school or college. Sometimes, a few seconds’ difference could prove the difference between life and death. By being aware, people can protect themselves. So, we aspire to create aware citizens out of students through mission mrityunjay

Singh said that one must learn to question. If in an auditorium there is thermos or toy kept, we must see if there is anything suspicious. If so, we should immediately inform the police. There are only 700 police in Pimpri-Chinchwad. But our information gathering has strengthened manifold thanks to the 1,400 members of 54 colleges.

When asked if students will be trained to act in emergency situations, Singh said, “There will be training sessions for students in various colleges We will train them how to react in emergency situation, how to direct people in a market or in an auditorium when an emergency arises.”
