The Garden committee in collaboration with IQAC of LSR organised a workshop on “Dragonfly conservatory” on 14.8.2019. We were pleased to welcome Mr. Sarin, an eminent judge of the Delhi University Flower Show, in this event. This workshop on dragonfly conservation was conducted by Dr. Ishtiyak Ahamad, Education Officer, Asola Bhatti Wildlife Sanctuary. Dr. Ahamad delivered an informative lecture on the life-cycle of the dragonfly and suitable conditions for its survival.
The lecture was followed by a practical demonstration of the Dragonfly habitat near the pond close to the College back lawn. Mr. Ahamad suggested the plantation of water plants like Hydrilla, and Pistia to attract dragonflies in the pond. Mr Sarin had an interactive session with gardeners of College during which he provided his valuable inputs on the development of the rose garden in College.
