MUKESH SHARMA
KALIMPONG, May 14:
Under the National
Environment Awareness Programme the Kalimpong College organized an Environment
Awareness Programme at the College, Deorali Busty and Bong Busty. The said
Programme was coordinated by FOSEP, Darjeeling. Under the guidance of Prof HK
Gautam the BBA students of the College and the people from the remote areas of
Deorali Busty partook in the Programme.
Along with awareness
drive, the students also conducted a survey. The survey results highlighted the
water issue faced by the people of Deorali Busty. People are compelled to walk
a kilometer to fetch a pale of water. Though the said area is just a 20 mins
away from the main town, still till date no benefits have been provided from
the Government’s side regarding this matter. Instead Non Governmental
Organizations (NGO) such as Glenn Foundation is doing the needful by providing
water tanks and water pumping machines. But the pumps cannot be of any use for
there is no proper provision of electricity by the Power Department. The troupe
met with the teachers of the Deorali Primary School and its students and also
educated them about conservation of natural resources and water. Tags: LOCAL
