Pune, October 03, 2024: Team Swachh Kalyani Nagar a highly active Trust that addresses various civics issues that affect a safe and peaceful life in the neighborhood celebrated Gandhí Jayanti on October 02 with the school children of the Erin Nagarwala School and a few representatives from the Bishop’s School Kalyani Nagar – the future citizens of our country.
They were told about the importance of being citizens and participating in keeping our roads safe for pedestrians and other vehicles on the road by following traffic rules and signs, keeping the cleanliness in the neighbourhood and the city and reaching out to the Pune Municipal Corporation (PMC) staff to address issues of road safety and cleanliness.
The group conducted a walk along Central Avenue highlighting the need for proper footpaths that should not be used for parking. A brief cleanliness drive was conducted on the road with gloves and masks and were given a feel of what it means to hold the broom and clean the roads so that they know the importance of the job of our safai karmacharis.
