TURA, June 8 – Several organisations, NGOs, schools and colleges took part in celebrations of the World Environment Day in the Garo Hills. The day-long event was marked with several tree plantation programmes in various places even as young school children took part in painting competitions on preservation of trees.
The “Green Day” celebrations took place at the campus of NEHU, ICFAI and several schools and colleges. Cleaning drives were also organised in several localities. A tree plantation programme was conducted by ICFAI University at its proposed new campus at Walbakgre, Tura, to comemorate the celebrations. “Plant trees and make the world greener,” was the theme of ICFAI celebrations.
Over two hundred saplings were also planted by NEHU students in and around their campus. Far-flung villages were also enrolled into the tree plantation programme. A number of NGOs organised separate tree plantation drives.
