We joyfully celebrated the 87th birth anniversary of our founder Fateh Singh Rathore Ji in the presence of school principals, teachers, students from our Outreach Program, and participants of the Rainwater Harvesting Pit and Eco-Brick competitions. Distinguished guests included Dr. Goverdhan Singh Rathore, Mr. Baljeet Meena, RO Rajasthan State Pollution Control Board, Mrs. Usha Rathore, Ms. Padmini Rathore, Mr. Dipendra Shekhawat, Mrs. Kalponika Bhattacharya, and Mr. John Stanley Masih.
The program opened with the soulful song “Utho, Waqt Aa Gya”, dedicated to Fateh Singh Ji, serving as a call for all to unite in protecting Ranthambhore’s tigers and environment. Highlights included the 3rd Tiger Guru Awards, honoring 14 students with scholarships, and presenting Tiger Watch’s book “Ranthambhore Ke Baghon Ka Sansar”, which is dedicated to Fateh Singh Ji for his role in tiger conservation, to schools and scholarship awardees.
Students from 22 schools made 770 rainwater harvesting pits and collected 150 kg of plastic waste through the new Eco-Brick competition.
With a touch of creativity, Aditya Sir and Vaibhav Sir crafted a musical instruments from plastic bottles, on which our students Abiel J Raj and Avichal Ashok Machya gave a delightful performance.
We also recognized our teachers—Mr. Aditya Dhar Dwivedi, Mr. Sumukh Tandon, Mr. Shashank Giri, and Ms. Nigar Afroz—for their dedicated efforts in engaging students from 23 schools across 14 villages through outreach and environmental awareness programs.
We recognized our staff for planting and distributing 7,500 saplings and stitching cloth bags from 2,000 meters of fabric. We are equally grateful to Mr. Hanuman Prasad Sharma for his vital support and coordination with the schools.
The program closed with hostel children singing “Chalo Mil Ke Lete Hai Ek Kadam”, uniting all for a greener future.
