IND-2012-182 SBS Gurgawan- Anti-Smoking
1.
2. We played the role to remove smoking from community. We used children
for improvement of villagers and getting their smoke free environment
.We got success to about 19 persons to make sure living smoke free life.
Now they have beautiful smiles on their faces. We used meetings with
students of village SARPANCH, with other village person .We tried to
bring change by the way of community life and spread awareness
through campaigns in village and we got a miracle change.
The village Gurgawan is , remotely located
between two district Shahjahanpur and
Farrukhabad is extremely backward with
agriculture .The population of the village is
illiterate and works mostly in the fields.
Agriculture is a whole family affair and involves
all men & women and children also.
The children are also drawn to work in their own
or also as labourer in other fields especially
during sowing season when more hands are
required.
3. During the discussions to identify the major problems of the village, students
feel that their village lots of people always not doing any work because they
are engaged only smoking and other addictions,because of this the village
can not grow and also this impact can be seen on children they also try it
among their peers to know that what will be happen-and why they do this….
After thousands attempt illiteracy still lies somewhere that
90% cancer of lungs and other disease caused by smoking
so to save life quit smoking…..They were totally unknown
with ‘HARMS of SMOKING; So our school’s children
arrange a Big campaign and have decided to spread
awareness among all villagers.
‘It was a beginning but sufficient to spread
awareness’ against smoking…..
It is a very positive result came out for our
students. Now people and children became
aware about smoking. Now they are living a
healthy and fearless life.
‘These were little steps towards huge
botheration’
