Seth Jai Prakash Polytechnic, Damla, Yamunanagar district, has designed and fabricated a decontamination box (almirah) to sanitise old records and office documents.

This box is fitted with four ultraviolet-C (UV-C) lamps. UV-C light is used to kill or inactivate microorganisms by destroying nucleic acids and disrupting their DNA, leaving them ineffective to perform vital cellular functions.

Besides using such boxes in its educational institutes including Seth Jai Parkash Polytechnic, the management of the Mukand Lal Educational Institutes will provide these boxes to other institutes and health authorities too.
