The Santipur Block Administration is dedicated to preserving the ecological balance of our region. We believe that development must not come at the cost of the environment. Through strict enforcement of state guidelines and community participation, we are striving to make Santipur a model “Green Block” in the Nadia district.
Key Initiatives
-
Solid Waste Management (SWM): Implementing comprehensive waste segregation (Blue & Green bins) at the Gram Panchayat level to ensure proper recycling and disposal of household waste.
-
Plastic-Free Zone: We strictly enforce the ban on single-use plastics (less than 75 microns) within the BDO office premises and local marketplaces, conducting regular awareness drives.
-
Mass Afforestation: Partnering with local schools and clubs to conduct annual tree-plantation drives along roadsides and barren lands to increase the green cover.
-
Clean Water & Sanitation: Regular monitoring of arsenic levels in groundwater and ensuring zero open defecation (ODF) status across all 10 Gram Panchayats.
