Kite Festival in Silvassa: Colors and Environmental Messages Fill the Sky Under ‘Mera Shehar, Mein Hi Sawarun’ Campaign
Grand Kite Festival Organized by ‘Human of Earth’ NGO at Silvassa Riverfront
The capital of the Union Territory of Dadra and Nagar Haveli, Silvassa, celebrated the festival of Uttarayan in a unique and impactful way. A grand Kite Festival was organized at the Silvassa Riverfront by the Human of Earth NGO in collaboration with the RCPL team. This festival went beyond mere entertainment, emerging as a focal point for social responsibility and environmental awareness.
The primary objective of the event, held under the ‘Mera Shehar, Mein Hi Sawarun’ (My City, I Will Decorate It) campaign, was to encourage local citizens to become active partners in the city’s cleanliness and safety. Along with the colorful kites soaring in the sky, messages of environmental conservation and community participation resonated throughout the venue.
Inspiring Presence of Dignitaries and Public Participation
The citizens of Silvassa participated in the Kite Festival with immense zeal. Several prominent figures were present to encourage the organizers and the participants:
- Rajniben Shetty (Former Municipal President): Praising the initiative, she stated that such programs strengthen unity and awareness among urban residents.
- Women Leaders: Shweta and Radha Jha, along with other representatives of the organization, remained present to support the cause.
- RCPL Team: The organizing team provided guidance on enjoying the festival while ensuring minimal harm to the environment.
A Message for Environment and Cleanliness
As kites engaged in friendly “pech” (duels) over the Silvassa Riverfront, participants took a pledge to maintain the beauty of their city. The ‘Human of Earth’ organization also issued a special appeal regarding the safe disposal of kite strings (manjha) and the protection of birds. The festival successfully demonstrated that the significance of any celebration increases manifold when it carries a profound social message.
