PANGIN : The Kepang Welfare Society (KWS), Pangin Block, organised a Social Service-cum-Cleanliness and Plantation Programme at Pangin on Sunday, with active participation from its members.
Siang Deputy Commissioner Tayi Taggu, who is also a member of KWS, and Pangin Circle Officer Duyu Ongku participated in the programme, representing the district administration and Pangin General Administration respectively.
As part of the programme, the PHED SE Circle Office Complex at Pangin was cleaned and a mass plantation drive was carried out within its premises. The initiative aimed to promote cleanliness and environmental conservation in and around Pangin town.
The KWS members also undertook social service at the General Ground, where sand and gravel were dumped and levelled in the market shed area. The site had remained swampy and waterlogged, particularly during the rainy season, causing inconvenience to the public. The levelling work is expected to improve access to the market shed and provide a cleaner and safer environment.
Similarly, the area near Pangin Gangging and the Community Hall was filled, levelled and cleaned to facilitate its use as a parking area.
KWS Pangin-Boleng Zonal President Tagam Panggam appreciated the members for undertaking the initiative for the welfare of the community and encouraged them to continue such activities.
Siang Deputy Commissioner Tayi Taggu appreciated the efforts of the KWS members and urged them to continue community-oriented initiatives. He also stressed the need for proper care and maintenance of the newly planted saplings and highlighted the importance of cleanliness for a healthy environment and public health.
Pangin Circle Officer Duyu Ongku also appreciated the initiative and called for sustained efforts to keep public spaces clean. She encouraged the KWS to organise more such social service and community welfare programmes in the future.
The programme reflected the society’s commitment to community welfare, environmental conservation and maintaining a cleaner Pangin town.
