Viveka Varsha 2019.Indd

Viveka Varsha Significance of Rivers It is astounding how a single river blesses us with its generosity by providing us with numerous aspects, essential to survival. Mother earth is also known as the blue planet because of it being covered with 71% of water. These water bodies are nature’s benefac- tions to mankind, life without which would not have been possible. One of the signifi cant sources of water is the river. The early men are known to settle on the banks of rivers in order to avail the comforts and benefi ts provided, that included supplies of fresh water, fertile soil for cultivation purposes and more. Rivers sustain life, not only for mankind but also for fl ora and fauna. Rivers are massive providers of myriad advantages. They are major economic assets of any country as they did in the production of electricity, attract tourism, act as a solid trans- portation medium, help in trading purposes and also support the ecosystem by helping in the functioning of various natural phenomena like the water cycle. Various rivers are also regarded as deities in many countries, including our own. They are considered sacred and worshipped by devotees with utmost respect and loyalty, as their holy water is known to cure one of all illness. Subsequently, it has been a curse for the rivers as lot of industrial & agricultural wastes are being dumped into the rivers, making the water toxic and fatal for human use as well as for the marine life sustaining. Sensible and prudent use of their precious resource as well as sustainable development is highly imperative at this point if we don’t make efforts and do it now, it might all be over soon. Its sure is toilsome, but not impossible. The change starts from within: it’s now or never.

The aphorism of the programme was to make those people drench with loads of happiness but the team was totally astonished when they happened to receive lots of gifts as a sign of gratitude for the dance performance. Every one was quite emotional. Despite this challenging ability (special needs) they didn’t give up their hopes & had lot of grit determination which was proved & felt in that place.
