AGARTALA, July 13 (TIWN): Tripura institute of Paramedical Sciences (TIPS) organized an awareness rally on Water Conservation today at Agartala.

A huge number of participants along with students walked the rally holding banners of mass awareness on Water conservation.

Tripura’s various areas are also suffering due to water crisis problems, specially drinking water. But there is no development in human behavior while wasting water.

This new movement has been appreciated and also joined by Tripura’s three more ongoing movements ‘Clean Tripura’, ‘Green Tripura’, ‘Plastic Free Tripura’.

TIPS has always taken an extra edge in organising different events related to awareness, mass education through healthcare camps,blood donation and many more. Alike always this time we again took an initiative in organizing rally for awareness’ campaign on “WATER CONSERVATION”. Water is one of the most essential natural resources that mankind has. It is believed that first traces of life on earth were found in water.

“Almost 70% of our planet is covered with water and life on earth is impossible without water. We need water for our various daily needs and activities and in this process we end up wasting a lot of water. It is high time that we now realize that we have to save water to save life. If we will not make efforts to conserve water soon the supply of fresh water will be exhausted. Water preservation must be at the top priority for the government authorities and for us citizens as well”, TIPS official told media.

There are number of ways in which we are contributing to the waste of water as given below-

❖ Leaving taps open when not in use.

❖ Leaving water sprinklers open in lawns and parks when not needed.

❖ Not reusing water: Most of the water can be reused hence so much can be saved.

❖ Polluting the rivers and other water bodies. â– Unplanned water management.

❖ Deforestation also causes loss of underground water.

❖ Plant a tree, this will be very useful.

❖ Conserve electricity as many power plants run on hydro power.

“So saving electricity will help you save water in return. Our small steps taken together will not only benefit us but it will also make earth a better place to live in for our future generations. We should make the habit of saving water and avoid its wastage not only in our homes but also in our localities, society offices etc.Its our moral duty also to spread the awareness regarding Save Water, Save Earth initiative and make people realize how water scarcity could affect us and our ecosystem. If we unite together for the cause and include water saving habit in our routine then there will be no water scarcity in the world and everyone will have access to safe and clean water. Being a premier Paramedical Institute, it is all the more of our responsibility and priority to make sure that we set examples for other Institutions, colleges ,schools , individual to start the awareness now before its too late and this is what all members of the institute believe and pledge for. The Institute does not intend to let the campaign lapse once this awareness campaign is over as we strongly believe that being constant on our motto will be always active in future too”, TIPS media cell said.
