Swacchata hi Seva by Refinery Para Durga Puja committee Digboi

Digboi,21st October : Like every year this year also REFINERY PARA DURGA PUJA committee has taken the initiative to clear the premises of the RPDP mandap and Ramlila Ground. It has been noticed that every year after the puja the area which is very populer for Ramlila and Refinery para Durga Puja got stucked under the load of waste materials wrappers and plastic wastes.

It is also to be added that in the name of Swacch Bharat Abhiyaan many initiativs has been taken by the local authorities but still there is a lot to cover. Vice President of RPDPC Sri Bivash Mahanta quoted that cleansing of promises of Puja mandap is as important as the puja celebration and it has to be our second nature.

Sri Amitava Chowdhury (Jt Secretary,RPDPC) has shown concern over increasing use of plastics. He added that the plastic wastes found this year while cleaning is much more than that of last year. Sri Shubhankar Bhattacharjee (Jt Secretary,RPDPC) also shared the same concern and appeal in RPDP FACEBOOK live platform to stop the plastic use. It has been noticed that there is no presence of temporary dustbins in the Ramlila Ground and which is also a reason of untidiness of the area. RPDPC members requested local authorities over Facebook live to provide temporary dustbins during puja period so that the effort could be made to keep the area clean.
