Sitapara under the guidance of Principal Dr. Smita B. Chhag. The programme began with a rally in which students walked along the beach while raising slogans related to beach cleanliness, environmental protection, and the importance of a clean environment. After the rally, the students collected plastic waste and other garbage materials from the beach. The collected waste was subsequently segregated based on its nature and degradability, providing students with practical understanding of waste segregation and responsible waste management.
The campaign provided students with a meaningful opportunity to contribute towards the cleanliness of the coastal environment and develop a sense of environmental responsibility. The active participation of the students helped spread awareness about plastic pollution and the importance of maintaining clean beaches. The programme successfully conveyed the message that collective efforts, proper waste segregation, and responsible behaviour are essential for a clean and healthy environment.
