Artworks exhibited at Art Gallery in Gandhi Park

    The Wildlife Wing of the Department of Environment & Forests, A&N Administration had conducted state-wide competitions on photography and pencil sketch for public for creation of awareness on the wildlife behaviour, their habits and habitats while observing 66th Wildlife Week. Overwhelming response was received. The exhibition of the artworks was inaugurated by the Chief Wildlife Warden, ANIs., Shri D. M. Shukla who highly appreciated the immense talents of the participants and observed that such talents should be further encouraged.

    The photographs and art works have been put on display in association with the Directorate of Art & Culture at the Art Gallery housed in the Gandhi Park, Port Blair for not only showcasing the rich natural wealth of these Islands but also in garnering and sustaining the support of the local populace in conservation of wildlife. The exhibition is open from Dec. 23 to Dec. 25.
