World Environment Day :
This is to notify that the NSS Unit of Gokhale
Memorial Girls' College, Kolkata will be
observing World Environment Day tomorrow on the

observing this sacred day than planting trees, we,
the members of the NSS committee, GMGC request all
faculty members and students to plant (without
violating the rule of social distancing) at least
one sapling each in their homes/gardens and send
pictures of them to either
