DODA, Nov 14: Promoting cleanliness and a sense of social responsibility, Navodaya Express Helping Charitable Trust, along with its associate organisation Shri Mata Bheemkashi Galadhar Dev Bhoomi Trust, organised a special cleanliness drive at the Common Facility Centre (CFC) Building in Ziani village of tehsil Kastigarh, Doda.
The initiative was undertaken following an awareness camp organised by the Department of Agriculture Production and Farmers Welfare at the CFC Building. Members of both NGOs participated in cleaning the building and its surrounding premises to promote the importance of maintaining hygiene and protecting public property.
NGO Chairman Hardev Singh, accompanied by his daughter Rani Upasna Singh, actively participated in the cleanliness drive and contributed towards cleaning the premises. Through the initiative, the organisations conveyed a strong message about community participation, environmental cleanliness and collective responsibility.
Speaking on the occasion, Hardev Singh said that every citizen has a moral responsibility to treat government property as their own and ensure its proper maintenance. He emphasised that keeping government buildings, public places and their surroundings clean should be a shared responsibility rather than the duty of a few individuals.
He also expressed gratitude to SDAO Pranoo and Agriculture Extension Officer, Kastigarh, Sh. Jaffar Ali Wani, of the Department of Agriculture Production and Farmers Welfare for organising an informative and awareness-oriented camp.
Hardev Singh further assured that both organisations would continue to undertake social service initiatives, cleanliness campaigns and other public welfare activities for the benefit of society.
The drive highlighted the importance of community involvement in maintaining public infrastructure and spreading awareness about cleanliness, with the message: “Cleanliness is Service – Protecting Government Property is Everyone’s Responsibility.”
