On the occasion of World Water Day, students of SMVITM performed a powerful street play at Shirva to raise awareness about water pollution and its consequences.
The play portrayed the story of a farmer who, influenced by a pesticide company, sells his farmland and turns to fishing for livelihood. However, tragedy strikes when his family falls ill after consuming contaminated fish from a polluted river. Despite medical efforts, lives are lost, and it is revealed that industrial pollutants from the pesticide company had severely contaminated the water, affecting both aquatic life and humans.
The narrative highlighted the devastating impact of irresponsible industrial practices and the importance of preserving natural water resources. Inspired by a real-life incident in Japan, the performance delivered a strong social message to the public.
The actors, direction, and overall execution were highly commendable, effectively engaging the audience and spreading awareness at the grassroots level.
SMVITM continues to encourage such meaningful initiatives that combine creativity with social responsibility.
