Assam youths provide solar lamps to poor school going children’s families on Diwali

Guwahati/IBNS: While the entire country is celebrating the festival of light ‘Diwali’, many people are still living under darkness without light.

A group of youths of Guwahati and other parts of Assam have taken an initiative to provide solar lamps to the poor school going children’s families who are still deprived of the electricity and for which they are not able to study during the night.

On the occasion of Diwali, the youths have taken this initiative by taking a campaign “Let’s light up life” under an NGO Touch of Humanity to help the poor school going children’s families.

Hirak Jyoti Bora – a member of the youth group said that they have taken the initiative to help the poor school-going children's families on the occasion of Diwali and Children’s Day.

“It is an attempt to support the children to study more and to bring glory in their lives as like the lamp gives light in the dark. A message they want to convey that Diwali is to be celebrated as the festival of Light in true sense by spreading love and light in life rather than burning crackers which leads to air pollution as well as noise pollution which creates chaos and harm the street animals and environment as a whole to a larger extent,” Hirak Jyoti Bora said.

This year the youth groups had distributed 20 solar lamps to 20 families of 2 no Khargoli Ram Singh Gaon village under Noonmati police station in Kamrup (Metro) district on Saturday evening.
