This morning Ganga Action Parivar Sevaks (GPS) participated in a clean-up program in Rishikesh. More than 20 sevaks cleared out polythene and other rubbish from an area of Rajaji National Park behind Parmarth Niketan Ashram. On starting the clean-up, the forest floor was covered with all different coloured polythene bags and rubbish. Once the work was over, everyone could see a massive improvement! A large sign was placed on the roadside instructing people to use the dustbin that was recently installed on-site by Ganga Action Parivar. It was wonderful to have passionate people together working towards saving our environment!
The area that was cleared today is the future location of one of GAP’s many tree plantations.
