Upcoming Event

Appeal from the Director of Environment on Wildlife Week 2020 - 2nd to 8th October, 2020

 

Wildlife Week is celebrated all over the country in the month of October from 2nd to 8th October every year with the view to preserve the fauna means the animal life of the India. Wild Life Week 2020 would be celebrated this year for the whole week from 2nd October to 8th October 2020. It was first started in the year 1952 with the great vision of saving the life of the Indian animals by taking some critical steps. It involves the planning to save animal extinction of any species of the India. The Indian Government has established an Indian Board of Wild Life which works to improve the awareness as well as the consciousness of the Indian people towards the wildlife preservation.
 
            Wild Life Week celebration is planned to arouse the general awakening of the normal people in the country towards the protection of wildlife. It is decided to celebrate the event for one week in the month of October 2020 by organizing some special activities connected with the wild life conservation. Students are the most important aspects of understanding the means and purposes of the celebrating the Wild Life Week. In this way it will be able to change the entire human mind towards the wild life conservation. Encourage the students to participate in the educational programs designed at many places like schools, camps and etc
 
Some of the related activities are:
  • Students should be encouraged to learn more things about the different wildlife animals and to participate in the quiz competition to increase their knowledge.
  • Follow new fun filled activities (like story telling, playing animals charades, building rain art and etc) to get their interests and precious attention.
  • Planting the tree is a big participation to the Wild Life Week campaign.
  • Organize some game and music activities like fun facts, puzzles, mazes and animal piano for the kids to enjoy nature.
  • Teach the students about wild life through the posters, cards or discussion.
 
 
On this Day, I urge all to take responsibility to creating awareness through online webinar, drawing competition, slogan competition and quiz competition etc. for the preservation of the Wildlife. Wildlife preservation is the plan to manage wildlife alongside with the human progress. Both of which are connected by each other on this earth, therefore it is necessary to save the wild life.
