It has become a primary need to save all forms of life from the draconian effects of plastic on the environment.�

While complementing chief patron Arvind Kumar Singh for organizing Durga Puja with strong social messages, parliamentarian Geeta Koda said, �This pandal provides a message of ensuring cleanliness in and around every locality. Jairam Youth Sporting Club Durga Puja Committee sends out social messages each year through its theme based pandals.�

Presiding the inaugural function, chief patron and former Ichagarh legislator Arvind Kumar Singh stated that this year the pandal theme was based on the ill effects of plastic use. The pandal sends out the message of a plastic free, clean environment. He said that the eye catching d�cor of the pandal projected how the demon in plastic use was engulfing planet earth. �It is through the intrinsically conceptualized and artistically executed pandal design that the Club has urged people to say good bye to plastic use,� stated Arvind Kumar Singh emphatically.
