With this aim, The NSS unit of The Bhawanipur Education Society College every year organizes a new Chapter of ‘Jal se Jeevan’ drive to save water and set higher goals. This year the student volunteers visited the residents of different locations throughout Kolkata with professional plumbers and offered free service to ensure the stoppage of leaking taps and spread the knowledge on how to save, store, and consume clean water and be safe from diseases like dengue & malaria.

The Jal se Jeevan project was launched in 2019 with a target of 1000 residences and volunteers achieved 40% of the target and are projected to achieve the remaining 600 households in the next set. Last year volunteers visited 850 residences in total and this year proudly we have overcome our own goals and covered 1117 houses in total.
The initiative aimed to create a sense of responsibility amongst the youth and make people aware of the importance of water and how to save it. All the volunteers relished their experiences from the days. We would like to extend our heartfelt congratulations to all the volunteers for their dedicated efforts, as well as to the programme officer, Prof. Gargi, for her role in initiating such noble campaigns.
