Raipur, 11 November 2020. Chief Minister Mr. Bhupesh Baghel today visited the children of Mohalla class, conducted under the ‘Padhai Tuhar Duar’ scheme in village Amaleshwar of Patan tehsil, Durg district. He asked the children a lot of questions related to Hindi, Mathematics and Environment, to which children responded quickly and correctly. Chief Minister generously praised and encouraged them.

Children answered correctly to that.
At the mohalla class, Chief Minister asked children the definition of ‘environment’. Chief Minister told children to not only be aware of the cause of environment conservation, but also inspire others to conserve it. For example, Kharun River flows near the village and people often dispose off plastic into the river. If you see someone doing that, educate them on how dangerous it is for the environment. Polluted water is the cause of 80% of the diseases.
The more aware we are about the environment, the healthier we will be. Chief Minister said that children all over the world are very conscious towards the environment.
