Tripura's Daspara: India's First Bio-Village Thrives with Green Initiatives

Tripura's Daspara: India's First Bio-Village Thrives with Green Initiatives

Imagine a small village called Daspara where people wanted to live in a way that's good for the planet and their wallets.

So, they started a project called 'Bio Village 2.0'.

They learned to use sunlight for energy with solar panels and turned waste into cooking gas with biogas.

They also started farming in ways that don't harm the soil, using natural fertilizers instead of chemicals.

This means less pollution and healthier food.

Because they are using these clean methods, their farms are more productive, and families are earning more money, about Rs 5,000 to Rs 15,000 extra each month!

Their success is so great that an international group called it one of the best green ideas in the world.

Now, the government wants to help other villages become like Daspara.
