Actor Rasika Dugal stresses on the need to initiate conversations about environmental preservation among children

Waste management has been a longstanding environmental issue worldwide. Addressing the crisis, actor Rasika Dugal has joined hands with Wish for Earth for the Little Green Brigadiers Campaign, an awareness initiative for the same.

When a group of parents decided to come together to form Wish for Earth to organise activities related to environmental issues for the children in their community, Dugal was game. For the initiative, the Mirzapur actor announced a contest called Impact Of Waste on her social media. Participants aged 6 to 12 years can submit their video entries on how to delineate the impact of waste.
