Trust undertakes traffic management and cleanliness drive to mark Gandhi Jayanthi

Amba Maheshwari Seva Trust undertook traffic management around Mangaladevi Temple and cleanliness drive around Gujjarkere in Jeppu under its “Awake Kudla” initiative on the occasion of Gandhi Jayanti on Friday.

Trust volunteers helped the traffic police in regulating traffic on Mangaladevi Car Street between 10 a.m. and 2 p.m. as there was a huge influx of devotees on a Friday.

They ensured cars and two wheelers were parked in an orderly manner, on the centre line of the road while leaving the sides of the road for unobstructed movement of vehicles. The trust has been carrying out this work for the past many weeks to ensure traffic orderliness on Fridays and other festival days. Inspired by the volunteers, a few local residents too joined hands in regulating traffic.

In the evening, trust volunteers and residents of Gujjarkere area undertook a mega cleanliness drive around the lake. They cleaned the surroundings, removed plastic waste and trimmed grass and other vegetation. The volunteers also created awareness among residents and visitors about maintaining the area clean, while educating them to segregate waste at source in homes. The trust has been undertaking regular cleanliness and maintenance work of Gujjarkere area for the past three years.
