The air quality is significantly below the standards set by the World Health Organisation” Panda said. “Until the quality of our environment is restored, living a healthy life will remain a daydream. But it is the basic right of all of us to grow up with good health in a quality environment,” he opined. Presiding over the programme, OES president Sundar Narayan Patro explained how environmental pollution is the prime cause for various health problems. He emphasised the importance of adopting a healthier lifestyle to be disease-free. Secretary of OES, Jayakrushna Panigrahi gave the vote of thanks.
