A live demonstration of the YUVA App was also conducted, enabling participants to gain practical exposure to digital tools for data collection, registration, and real-time status tracking. The program concluded with an interactive Q&A session, further reinforcing the readiness of YUVA DOOTs for on-ground implementation.
