Thousands attend Green festival in Shillong
Father Rajendra, Vice Principal of St Anthony's school said, 'Awareness need to be raised among the public, administrators, developmental workers and students. (This rally) is an attempt to sensitise students about the threats against earth.'
SCHOOLS ACROSS Meghalaya observed the Green festival, an environment awareness, in order to make the youth aware of the current environmental realities and the needs of the globe. In spite of the wide range of interests in the environment, there are still crucial knowledge gaps in many spheres of man’s environment relationship. Development, as it is carried out in the recent times, ignores ecological constraints and is in effect, an unplanned destruction of our natural resources. The need of the hour is to have a global remodelling of the economic and social developments, that would be compatible with ecological parameters. Father Rajendra, Vice Principal of St Anthony’s school said, “Awareness need to be raised among the public, administrators, planners, developmental workers and students. (This rally) is an attempt to sensitise students about the threat on the earth.” Meghalaya Education Minister Ampareen Lyngdoh was the Chief guest on the occasion, while, Father Joe Almeida, the Provincial of Guwahati was the guest of honour.
