India is the most depressed country in the world, according to the world health organisation. Depression is one of the most commonly diagnosed mental disorders in primary care settings. The NMHS provides information on prevalence, disability, treatment gap and socioeconomic impact associated with depressive disorders among adults in India. The crude prevalence rate of mood disorder was estimated to vary from as low as 0.5 to as high as 78 per 1000 population. One in six people aged 10-19 years is suffering from depression. Globally, depression is one of the leading causes of mental illness, suicide and disability among adolescents. Outcomes: -The overall comparison in experimental group among tests regarding level of anxiety that paired sample ‘t’ test was calculated to significant difference in within group to test scores of level of anxiety in experimental group revealed that there was a highly statistically significant difference found in the level of anxiety in outcome scores between pre and post-1 test in experimental. The overall mean difference between pre test (29.3±5.77) and post test -1 (20.13±3.74) group with mean difference was 9.2. The obtained ‘t’ value was 10.94 with p<0.001 which was statistically highly significant difference between pre test and post test -1. The overall mean difference between pre test (29.3±5.77) and post test -2 (18.9±6.95) groups with mean difference was 10.4. The obtained ‘t’ value was 10.56 with p<0.001 which was statistically highly significant difference between pre and post-2. The overall mean difference between pre test (29.3±5.77) and post test -3 (14.6±7.95) groups with mean difference was 14.73. The obtained ‘t’ value was 12.41 with p<0.001 which was statistically highly significant difference between pre test and post test -3. Conclusion:-Hence, Comparison of overall interpretation regarding level of anxiety in experimental group depicts that, there was significant difference found between t
