Mangaluru, 07 Jan: Ramakrishna Mission carried out 5th voluntary cleaning as part of 2ndphase of Swacchata Abhiyan at Padua locality, here on Sunday, January 6.

 

Mohammad Nazeer, municipal commissioner flagged off the Shramadan at 7.30am. Captain Gopinath Rao was the chief guest.

 

Speaking on the occasion Mohammad Nazeer said, ‘No policy of the government is effective without cooperation from the general public. If Mangalore has attracted the attention of the whole nation today regarding cleanliness, the main credit goes to the Ramakrishna Mission’s Swacchata Abhiyan which is being carried out consistently with the support of the public. Because of this Abhiyan Mangalore got first place in India in solid waste management. Already Mangalore city corporation has joined hands with Ramakrishna Mission in garbage segregation a& management from each and every household. We look forward to support this Abhiyan more actively in the coming days.’
