About OXIWIFI event:

The tree plantation programme organized by Rotaract Club of SAEC to create awareness on global warming which was held on 1st April 2016, jointly with the Social Service Committee of SAEC.

HOD/Mechanical Engineering Department, Mr. Prakash AP/EEE (Co-ordinator of Social Service Committee of SAEC) and Mr.Kabilash AP/Civil Engineering Department (Member of Social Service Committee of SAEC) also planted the saplings.

Around 35 Rotaract members were part of this event, who together planted nearly 30 saplings which included neem, mango, teak, portia, gooseberry, tamarind etc. As this was the first project coordinated by the Rotaract club, all the Rotaractors enthusiastically planted the trees and enhanced coordination.

It is needless to speak the importance of trees. It is not possible to describe the importance and uses of trees in world. They are part and parcel in our day to day life. We cannot think our existence without trees. Rabindranath says “Back thy forest, take your town”. Likewise Rotaract of SAEC, with the great support of Director Thiru. P. Venkatesh Raja, Secretary Thiru. D.Dasarathan, Principal Dr.P.K.Nagarajan, HOD’s of various department and faculty members of SAEC had launched a massive and ambitious programme regarding tree plantation. We should not use and destroy trees at random. Rather we should plant trees more and for a better and healthier life.
