C-25, IFS Apartments, Mayur Vihar Phase I, Delhi
"Metro ke andar jaise safai, bahar kyun nahi?" The residents of "IFS Apartments" posed this question to the commuters, vendors and rickshaw pullers outside Mayur Vihar Phase I Station in the evening of the eve of Gandhi Jayanti. Contributing to the "Swatch Bharat" campaign, young and old volunteers set an example by picking up garbage and requested the passersby to co-operate in keeping the area clean. It was heart warming to see former diplomats and their wives picking up litter from the street! Attractive placards exhorting all to adopt cleanliness around them were prepared by the children of Shanti Niketan Public School in Pandav Nagar. Students of Ahlcon International School also participated enthusiastically. The "IFS Apartments" residents have set a good example. The city can be kept clean and free of Dengue and Chickengunia when the enlightened citizens of our city assist the municipal workers both by creating awareness among the people and by directly removing garbage in their localities."
