To make sure the message is received by the audience, a screening of an educational film conveying the nutritional value of millet has also been planned.

To keep the excitement levels soaring, the Odisha Millet Mission plans to have a bunch of quirky and competitive games. Participants are sure to be on the edge of their seats.
