Subject 1 : The Environment – Seen Through My Lens
We witness a number of incidents every day. Many of these affect the environment – some benefit it whereas others harm it. These incidents may be related to ecology, wildlife, energy, air, water or other aspects of Nature. They may be positive or negative. We may like them or dislike them.

Here is a chance to show others what you have seen. Pick-up your camera and capture moments that convey a powerful message aimed at protecting our priceless Earth, our bountiful planet, our Vasundhara!

Subject 2 : River Pollution
Rivers get polluted when industrial effluent, civic wastewater, chemical waste, hospital waste, nuclear waste, industrial waste, agricultural runoff, or any other harmful material is dumped into the river directly or indirectly, knowingly or unknowingly.

Such pollution affects the quality of the water as well as the aquatic eco-system in and around the river. Here is a chance to use the creative platform of visual art to create social awareness about this problem!
