Today our society is facing lot of problems related to environment. Moreover, today students are more connected to people all over the world but less connected to the near and dear ones and the nature. Taking this into consideration, Nature Club in our college, sorts out some activities which help them to connect, to our ‘Mother Earth’. The Nature Club conducts various activities such as Observing Plantation Day, Vermicomposting of biodegradable waste, maintenance of Butterfly Garden, Herbal Garden, nature trail etc., throughout the year.
Nature Club Activities to make the campus Green
Members of Nature Club always add new plants in the butterfly garden and maintained it. They also add new variety of plants and arrange the plants harmoniously in the garden area of the campus.
