On Sunday morning, more than 1.14 lakh students, citizens, and public representatives gathered in nine places across Navi Mumbai to take part in the 'Indian Swachhta League' Cleanliness Survey. Navi Mumbai Municipal Corporation (NMMC) was rated as the city with the highest youth participation last year and is determined to maintain the same reputation this year.
At 8 am, the group of students, citizens, teachers, women's self-help groups, and voluntary organizations took the collective oath of cleanliness in all eight wards. NMMC Municipal Commissioner Rajesh Narvekar attended the event at Jewel of Navi Mumbai in Nerul and was delighted by the enthusiasm of the participants. He expressed his gratitude and said that such awareness and love for the city will keep Navi Mumbai number one forever.
The event was further boosted by a video from renowned singer and music composer Shankar Mahadevan. Even though he was in America for a program, he urged the citizens of Navi Mumbai to continue their enthusiasm and make the city number one in cleanliness.
The occasion was also used to conduct a cleanliness campaign at five places along the creek. The municipal commissioner Rajesh Narvekar along with Additional Commissioner Sujata Dhole and Deputy Commissioner of Solid Waste Management Department Babasaheb Rajle participated in the cleanliness drive, encouraging the conscious citizens who voluntarily participated in mangrove cleaning. 10,500 citizens joined the campaign and it was a great success.
Lastly, NMMC observed Engineer's Day at its headquarters in Belapur on the same day. The event was organized to recognize the contributions of engineers in the development of the city and to mark the birth anniversary of Sir M Visvesvaraya, one of the most influential engineers in India.
