Following the footsteps of PM Modi, CM Raghubar Das On Tuesday stressed on the mantra of ‘clean and healthy’ Jharkhand. Das was speaking during a programme on ‘Vision for State of Clean Jharkhand’ at Delhi Public School (DPS) on Tuesday. Addressing the audience, the CM said that creating a ‘Swachh Jharkhand, Healthy Jharkhand’ was a priority for the Government. Also, he encouraged the public to come forward for the initiative.
Besides, the campaign, Das felt that it is important to establish quality education in Government schools like that prevailing in private schools. He said it is the responsibility of the Government to provide quality education to each student of the State. DPS Principal Ram Singh is likely to call a meeting of CBSE Principals for the quality education issue.
Singh said: “It is important to generate awareness among the citizens about the importance of sanitation. It is more important than independence.” The National Mission for Cleaning Ganga was also highlighted here. Around eight city schools participated in the debate on ‘Clean Jharkhand- Is it completely Governments responsibilityIJ’
The students spoke with considerable enthusiasm and suggested a number of feasible ideas like ‘Clean habit and clean consciousness can be built among students in the formative age group that will bring a new generation who value cleanliness.’ Some also said that every school should be asked to form a Swachh Bharat Club. All were eager to respond to the call of our PM to donate 100 hours per year to keep our surrounding clean.
A special programme was presented by the students of standard fourth and fifth depicting the Journey of Ganga. This has been motivated by PM Modi’s, “Clean India Programme”. The young and vibrant dancers depicted the journey of Ganga descending from ‘Swarg’ to shape Mother Earth aimed at attaining moksh from Sagar Raja. Moving ahead in the journey they finally reached Patna where they showed the nuances of ancient Hindu festival and Vedic festival dedicated to sun God.
later on the sad state of affairs, a pledge was taken by them to work together to keep Ganga Clean and maintain the beauty and sanctity of Ganga.
