Srinagar, July 28: Indian Army addressed environmental issues with various initiatives and campaigns.
Indian Army put up posters enroute between Baltal and the Holy Cave to spread awareness amongst the pilgrims for waste segregation and waste disposal, which assisted in spreading the message throughout the country.
The Army took on the challenge of waste segregation, where dry and wet waste is being segregated and further processed, creating a huge impact on the nature, as well as improving the condition of the area by avoiding any illness and other diseases from being spread.
To lend hand for the waste management initiative, SWAAHA, a Non profit Government organization closely contributed for the cause. The waste segregated then was further collected and handed over to SWAAHA through their workers to be processed, decomposed and recycled as per wet waste and dry waste respectively. This gives a strong message that more such NGOs/recycling companies should come forward to establish co-operative arrangements with Government organizations for addressing the cause of waste management.
Indian Army having the motto of service before self, being the soldiers of the soil, not only stands for the protection of country but also for the contribution for any national cause. Such initiatives are apt examples of the same.
