“Green engineering” is the need of the hour, President Droupadi Murmu told officers of the Military Engineer Services (MES) on Friday as she asked them to construct eco-friendly and sustainable structures that promote the use of renewable energy.
Addressing a group of MES probationers, who had called on the President at the Rashtrapati Bhavan here, Murmu said, “The role of an engineer is not just limited to calculations, designing and construction. It is much broader and includes connecting communities, realising the dreams, and shaping the future.” “As young officers who have just entered the service, you must be well aware of the environmental challenges and issues of climate change.
