JAMMU, Oct 21: Under the Swachhta Abhiyan 2023, the Central Govt Pensioners' Welfare Association, Jammu (CGPWA) in collaboration with BALGRAN, charitable Home for Destitute children, Channi Rama, today undertook 2-hour long cleanliness campaign this morning along the road outside the Bal Bharti Public School. About an half a km stretch along with drain was cleaned up. About fifty boys & girls and members of the CGPWA took part in the drive
As a part of the program, the BALGRAN collected the unserviceable items and auctioned it for Rs. 23, 900/-. With the disposal of these items, the Home created some space besides earning revenue.
Later, a symposium was also held in the School on Swachhta in which six students took part and spoke about the importance of cleanliness in the life of citizens. They included Iskar & Zubair of 9th class, Priyanka & Diksha of 8th class, Jaffar of 7th class and Minkli of 6th Class. All of them spoke passionately about inculcating the spirit of Swachhta right from childhood to become a responsible citizen.
The former DDP and President of CGPWA, Jammu Kuldeep Khoda gave away gifts to each of them.
Speaking on the occasion, Khoda hailed the Swachhta Abhiyan launched by the Modi Govt since 2014, every year commencing from the birthday of Mahatma Gandhi who is a pioneer in spreading the message of Swachhta. This initiative has impacted citizens especially the children who at their impressionable age, take it as a lifetime message.
Khoda also impressed upon the management of BALGRAN to give necessary focus to other matters like Swachhta, sports, debates, and other extracurricular activities as these are as important as studies, in formation of the holistic development of students' personality.
In this context, Khoda suggested regular interaction of senior citizens with the students and offered to depute some of the members of CGPWA, Jammu which has a huge experienced Human Resource, for regular interaction.
The Secretary BALGRAN, V K Raina conducted the proceeding and briefly apprised about the activities of the HOME and the School.
Later, at a joint meeting of the managements of CGPWA & BALGRAN, the modalities of this interaction were finalized. It was decided that one senior member of the CGPWA would visit the BALGRAN on every second Saturday and interact with the inmates of the BALGRAN. The objective is to infuse in the children, moral values, Indian culture, and other good things about our nation. J K Vaid, former Director, GSI and Life member of both organisations will be the first to interact with the students in November.
By another imitative of CGPWA, one of its members, expert in a particular field, would deliver a talk on selected topics to upgrade students' knowledge on different matters. Under the program, the first member, former Director IIIM, Dr. S C Puri would deliver a talk on Science and Yoga on next Sunday, 29th October.
