My Earth My Duty

On 25th August our college organized a small Tree Plantation and inauguration of Prakriti the eco-club of RBC College. On the occasion the Principal of the college could not be present due to some unforeseen reasons. But Vice-Principal Sir planted the first sapling to start the event. Then PB sir, BB sir and other faculty members planted saplings. Ayan da our climate champ and our Special Guest also planted the sapling. Principal Sir planted the sapling on 26th. Then the VP Sir inaugurated Prakriti. BB Sir gave his speech regarding joining and asked me to take the helm of affairs in my hand. Then I gave my speech and politely refused to take charge of the Eco-Club rather I will become the Secretary and my Friend Suraj will be the Vice-President. Then Ayan da gave his speech which was great as usual. Many of my friends were motivated to join eco club after that. Then Suraj gave his speech which was very official like. Then we took the names of the student and staff members. We got around 20 names from Staff members and more than 50 names from students. Thank you all for the support. I also thank NSS and all my friends from Economics dept. without them this time also we could have failed like our seniors. And sorry for those food packets which you all should have got.
So we have begun today the green journey but we need now to take this journey forward fast and swiftly.
Bye

Together we can

I liked the idea given by Sulakshana. Why should we all work separately and not together? After all, all of ours projects are related to climate change. We are just tackling it through different fronts. Someone is working for green building, someone in climate finance, someone in awareness etc. But my project has got best of all the worlds. So surely need the help of all you guys out there. But then the one of our Martian Mr. Raghav’s worry is very correct. What I think we should do is we should simply write about what we are doing and let the help flow in. All the things which Raghav says are true and practical. But then we have to make our project impactful. And this work cannot be done alone for sure. So we should focus our energy at not more than ten projects at a time. But surely we can pass suggestions and all to others. For example we in East Zone more precisely ICCs in and around Kolkata have 4 waste management projects so we are doing it together. I also have a waste managemen...

UnIndianing India

Today our Republic turns 70years. In these year we have raised ourselves from ashes of partition and hate, braved conflicts internal and external. Yet we have carried on as a republic for so long, because we stayed true to the ideals of our founding fathers. The ideas that shaped our struggle against a colonist, against the communalists. But very often did our republic find itself at the verge and it seemed the dreams that freedom fighters saw for our free nation might be too much. Last few months if not years have been like that as well. When we seem to be turning our backs to the principles that defined our country. Principles of unity in diversity. Where so many people from so many different part regions, religions speak so many languages, can live and thrive together. Where different ideas from anywhere is not frowned upon. Where one does not have to fear to speak his/her minds out. Where people from different places and religions were welcomed not just as guests but as God...
