A crusader Arindam gets tireless to stop underage marriage

Last night a marriage ceremony was started at Goswamipara under Goghat police station at about 10.30 p.m when a minor girl was forced to wed someone of Chandrokona  area under Paschim Medinipur district. All of a sudden Deputy Magistrate Santiram Gorai in compliance with the order of the Sub-divisional Magistrate Arindam Niyogi arrived at that place and approached Mr. Tapan Goswami, the ignorant father of that girl to stop such illegal marriage. The parents having been fully convinced had given an undertaking that they would allow their daughter to be educated and self reliant before attaining her marriageable age. A peaceful enforcement of an essential law to eradicate the juvenile marriage had completed by 1.30 a.m this morning.

In less than one month consecutive four successful initiatives have been spreading a message fast to the commoners that administration would no longer sleep to end this social curse like immature marriage.  And it is Mr. Arindam Niyogi who will be remembered in the days to come for blowing the whistle.

Child marriage lovers stay away from Arambagh

No theory but practice ; not once but contiguously; not as a duty but as a dedication to eradicate a social evil  like child marriage from society Arindam Niyogi, the Sub-divisional Magistrate of Arambagh has been taking one after another exemplary initiative to stop marriage of young girls before attaining their marriageable age, i,e 18 years prior to the time they are not both legally and medically considered to be sound enough to carry on their post wedding responsibilities.

Today with his direction Deputy Magistrate Santiram Gorai and BDO of Arambagh Community Development Block Mrinal Kanti Guin went to Salepur village and prevented Pradip Pandit to give marry to their minor daughter to a primary school teacher of Haripal under Chandannagore Sub-division. Instead of power play, a good counselling makes the parents of that young girl convinced that their daughter needs nourishment and education now. And the sub-divisional administration will happily extend financial assistance to clear her forthcoming Higher Secondary examination.

On the eve of India's 66 Independence Day, it not mere words but a practical execution of law in a humanitarian way  stops a social nuisance which may inspire other to follow this golden path of ensuring women rights in broader sense.    

Waste Water Management at Arambagh Sub-divisional Hospital can show path to the rest.

The low marshy land full of weeds adjacent to the Arambagh Sub-divisional Hospital  has now been transformed in to a well planned garden by land filling from 3 to 12 feet wherever it is felt necessary under the leadership of Dr. Manojit Mookherjee, ex - physician who motivates people from all strata of society to come forward and contribute according to their capacity to make the waste water management programme  with greenery as an effective as well as exemplary one.

 Having experienced the contribution of Dr. Mookherjee who sets a model for the developing countries for the management of bio-medical waste and the greenery with multipurpose environmental values the District Magistrate of Hooghly recommended his name for Indira Gandhi Parjabaran Puraskar-2010.
