Commemorating the recognition of Diphupar village, Diphupar Naga Women Organisation (DNWO) organised an inaugural programme of the beautified highway at Diphupar village gate, here, on Tuesday.
Speaking at the programme, Diphupar Village Council (DVC) chairman Ghuzui Shohe lauded the women organisation for the initiative and encouraged the members of the village to continue encouraging one another.
Ghuzui also encouraged the organisation by saying that they need to do what was best for the welfare of the society and leave footprints during their tenure.
Meanwhile, in a word of appreciation, DNWO chairperson Tainla Ao acknowledged all who had contributed in making the drive a success.
She informed that the drive was carried out from green-park to Dimapur airport junction and that it was yet to be completed from green-park to central jail which she said would be carried out next year.
She further informed that out of 350 flower plants, 230 flowers had been planted. DNWO secretary Ratolu Chakhesang said that the objective of the drive was to encourage beautification and that planting flowers in shared spaces made fostered a sense of pride and care among the communities.
Since watering the flowers was a problem, Ratolu encouraged the shopkeepers and residents to extend their help and support.
She also disclosed that a pot was stolen from the divider and that such act should not be carried out.
Further, she encouraged all to work together in keeping the city clean and beautiful.
Earlier, invocation was said by Sumi Baptist Church, associate women pastor, Hukali Sumi.
It may be mentioned that the beatification was initiated by DNWO from green park area to airport junction by placing flower pots and planting flowers at road dividers.
