To ensure protection and preservation of environment, the Educational Gym Club (EGC), Wangbal Part-II, Thoubal district has banned cutting of trees and trapping/killing of wild birds and animals in all areas under its jurisdiction.
In a statement released by the club, it stated that EGC, in association with the Joint Co-ordination Committee on Wildlife & Biodiversity (JCCWB), Manipur and volunteers of the locality will conduct a mass tree plantation drive as well.
The increase number of tree cutting, killing wild animals etc in the State has led to deterioration of the environment, it said and added that these initiatives are being undertaken to protect and preserve the environment and to help battle climate change and global warming.
As part of this undertaking, the club organised a social service camp in Thongjao Bazar, Wangbal Part-II today.
