An initiative was recently launched in Seijosa, Pakke-Kessang district, a dedicated Workers’ Club for the frontline staff and families of Pakke Tiger Reserve. This facility reflects a much-needed focus on the welfare of forest guards and field personnel who serve tirelessly in often challenging conditions.
The club is designed to support both physical and mental well-being. It comes equipped with sports equipment, a reading library, indoor games, and a common area for community interaction. Such spaces are not just recreational; they foster unity, ease stress, and encourage learning and engagement among forest staff and their families.
Initiatives like this help improve morale and give back to those who protect our natural treasures.

What do you think about such initiatives?
Should similar clubs be established in other protected areas across Arunachal Pradesh?
