Keeping in mind cleanliness and environmental protection in the urban areas of the state, the Urban Development and Housing Department is developing sewerage system in selected urban bodies with the help of the World Bank.
Almost cent percent target of sewerage connection has been achieved in Shajapur.
Here 13 thousand 260 houses have been connected with sewerage connection.
Two girl students of Shajapur district of the state have set a new example of awareness in the field of cleanliness and environmental protection. Sonakshi and Sakshi Suryavanshi of CM Rise School Shajapur participated in the National Children’s Science Congress held in Bhopal and proved that age is just a number, when it comes to doing something for the betterment of society and environment, then children are also not behind in this important issue.
The topic of their presentation at the state level programme of National Children’s Science Congress was “Smart Sewage for Civilized Society”, an issue which is directly related to our health, hygiene and environment.
Both the girl students not only focused on the technical aspects of sewage management built by Madhya Pradesh Urban Development Company, an undertaking of the Department of Urban Development and Housing, but also presented it to the society as a big social issue.
The sewerage project of Shajapur is being run with the support of the World Bank. This project is showing the citizens of the city the path of a clean and healthy life.
A meaningful effort was made to spread awareness on a large scale through information, education and communication activities to make the benefits of the sewerage project reach the citizens.
Street plays, women’s meetings, seminars in schools and colleges and door-to-door contact efforts have inspired the society.
This thinking emerging in Shajapur shows that when children get the right guidance and education, they can lay the foundation for big changes in the society.
Sonakshi and Sakshi’s efforts are not only being appreciated in their school and community, but the initiative is also being supported by the World Bank and other institutions.
