Jakhalabandha goes green in bid to be Gateway to Kaziranga
Over 500 shops and
business establishments of Jakhalabandha area paints their structures green
heeding the call of the Kaliabor subdivision administration that has started a
‘Green Jakhalabandha Clean Jakhalabandha’ campaign to project Jakhalabandha as
the ‘Gateway to Kaziranga’.
The campaign aims at
projecting Jakhalabandha as the Gateway to Kaziranga with thrust on greenery,
cleanliness and hygiene, scientific waste management, development of home-stay
facilities, an organic farming in sync with the Swachh Bharat Mission
and Solid Waste Resource Management
The administration
also interacted with rag-pickers and distributed a tricycle van for transportation
of garbage. The aim is to segregate and collect waste at source and ensure scientific
disposal and manage waste without dustbin and make it to be a pollution-free
and plastic-free zone,which would
facilitate large-scale plantation across the subdivision and involve the local
populace in organic farming.
With this step Kaliabor as a whole can well emerge as a tourist destination. It has all the potential and the only
need is to engage the local communities purposefully. Being so near to Kaziranga
aim is also on encouraging home-stay so that the people can directly host the
tourists coming to Kaziranga National Park and nearby areas.
It's a crucial step towards "GREEN & CLEAN INDIA" under"SWACH BHARAT ABHIYAN' initiated by our PM Narendra Modi.People should take Jakhalabandha as a role model & paint green & plant tress to reduce the effect of global warming.
