NDTV's Green Marathon

Tomorrow marks the launch of NDTV's 2nd edition of Green Marathon. I was watching their 9 pm news and it was quite fascinating to know how the effort has helped millions of Indians across the most isolated villages in our country.
62% of India plunges into darkness after sunset everyday and thats quite an astonishing figure. Efforts such as these helps to give momentum to those who with their innovative and cost effective ideas wants to bring about some change and it also gives an opportunity to those who wants to contribute in bringing smiles to poor people.
The media has played a huge role in making these initiatives known to people. There is a genuine effort from different sections of the society to initiate change in various ways and the best we as individuals can do is to be a small part in these efforts.

Congratulations to NDTV for playing its role in lighting the nights of millions of people living in rural India.
