Students of Nagarjuna make clay Ganesh idols

Kadapa: On the eve of Vinayaka Chaturthi festival, the students of Nagarjuna Model School prepared Ganesha idols with clay with an intent to preserve environment. 

Ganesh idols which are made with Plaster of Paris and use of artificial colours tend to cause harm not only to environment but also results in water pollution. As it is the responsibility of everyone to protect environment, the school management has conducted this programme. Later, students took the idols they have prepared to their houses.

The aim of the programme was to immerse idols at home itself in plant pots to protect environment, teachers said. Chairman of Nagarjuna Group of Schools, M Shivashankar Reddy and Director Sridevi congratulated students and the event organiser Phanindra.
