The concluding programme featured the staging of ‘Nadir Axukh’ (The River’s Illness), a play focusing on rural life and the urgent issue of river pollution and conservation.

Written and directed by noted dramatist Manas Pratim Bora, with Moon Deka as associate director, the production was performed by over thirty children trained during the workshop.

The play delivered a compelling message on the importance of protecting rivers, which serve as lifelines for human civilisation.

In addition to the play, the evening included performances of dance, music, and poetry recitations by the participants, which were well received by the audience.
