Campaign Against Crackers
Different organizations arrange campaigns against crackers and resultant noise or sound pollution in deferent ways. Our school also organized a campaign against it last Saturday on the eve of Diwali. The students, teachers, guardians and others took part in the programme. On the occasion a procession was taken out from the school compound with colourful posters, write-ups, and slogans. The procession went round the locality of our school. Many local people gathered by the road to see the procession. In the afternoon a panel discussion was held. All the speakers underlined the need for awareness among people against noise pollution caused by crackers. The panelists also made the people aware of the colossal wastage of money which bursting of crackers caused. They were also of the opinion that the pollution level recorded by the Pollution Control officials needed to be decreased by stopping bursting of crackers. Some of them talked at length how accidents of fire were caused every year during Diwali. Creating consciousness among the public especially guardians and children through the organization of a procession and discussion like ours can alone check, to a great extent, the problems as such.
