Sustainability trek was one of the most awaited parts of the visit. We had our lunch and then started to trek at 2 pm. It took us 4 hours to complete the trek which includes lots of scenic views and the cold breeze which ease our way to the complete the trek. During the trek, we got the opportunity to access the caves, and the greenery was breathtaking.
During the visit, I understand the importance of nature and how much it is important to preserve the environment and it's our duty or responsibility to focus our attention on sustainability. One incident I want to narrate, when we were trekking through the hills, there was a pipeline in our way. However, the pipe was broken at one end, and water was coming out from that portion continuously. So, when we saw that everyone was trying to figure out a way to stop the leakage of water and one of our strategies works and we were able to almost stop the leakage. This would never have happened if we were not exposed to sustainability. Hence, I think the sustainability program helps us not only to expose our self to sustainability but also to become a good citizen.
