The Department of Education, Patna Women’s College (Autonomous), organised a Kavya Paath titled “Jal, Man aur Jeevan” for B.Ed. students on 26 October 2026 under Special Campaign 6.0. The programme used Hindi poetry to encourage reflection on water, nature and the relationship between the environment and human life.
Ashikan Soy and Samina Yasmin anchored the programme, and Nupur Pathak delivered the welcome address. The students recited poems by several Hindi poets, bringing different perspectives on forests, trees, seasons and the changing natural world.

Following the recitations, Dr. Prabhas Ranjan addressed the students. He spoke of water as the source of creation and a form of Shakti, saying, “Jal srishti hai, jal Shakti ka roop hai.” He also encouraged students to give due place to reason when making decisions, rather than being guided by emotion alone.
The programme ended with a vote of thanks by Vishveshvari, who acknowledged the contributions of the participants and organisers. The Kavya Paath provided students an opportunity to engage with environmental concerns through literature and recitation.
