Garbage to Gardens Scholarships Initiative

 

A special 87th birthday with a mission to accomplish !

Today is a special day in my life. I have completed more than eight and a half decades of this long journey of life. It has been a happy, healthy, and blissful contended phase throughout. My happy family, my near and dear ones, also my dearest friends who have always shown me their love and respect. I am extremely grateful  to all of them.

At the same time, when I look around, I see the other side:  poverty, inequality illiteracy etc. We cannot remain insensitive to all these issues happening in our society

I am not a rich or wealthy individual, but with my limited resources I have decided to sponsor a girl student coming from a tribal community to complete a 2 year diploma course in Agriculture at the Jnana Prabodhini Krushi Tantra Vidyalaya, Harali in Solapur district.

To make this a sustainable cause and help more needy students in the future, I have decided to launch a Garbage to Gardens Scholarship Initiative (www.socialseva.org/ggsi).

Let us all be together to support this genuine cause and give our blessings and best wishes to uplift the needy and deserving students in our society in the field of science and other areas of education.

Usage of Bio-waste incinerator at society level

I am happy to inform my friends that Magarpatta City has installed a Bio-waste incinerator to treat the bio-waste created in the society like sanitary pads, diapers used by sick patients, diapers used for babies and also masks used during the pandemic etc. Magarpatta City management has taken the lead and initiative to start this at the society level as it is an important issue through which infections can be spread. I hope and wish that other societies also follow this soon. Magarpatta City has an excellent Waste to Energy system which is worth following as a role model and I am proud to be a resident of Magarpatta city, which is known as The Pride of Pune.
