In the series of Cleanse Planet Earth drives, under the patronage of Saint Gurmeet Ram Rahim Singh, Dera Sacha Sauda organised yet another cleanliness campaign in Noida's Gautam Budh Nagar on Sunday.
More than three lakh people from all over India participated in this campaign. It was fifth cleanliness drive conducted by Dera Sacha Sauda volunteers in the National Capital Region.
Singh started the campaign by sweeping the broom himself at Shashi Chowk near the Golf Course on Saturday.
'Dera Sacha Sauda had successfully completed 19 mega cleanliness campaigns all across India. Noida was the 20th venue where this drive brought a new wave of awareness to people of this industrial region,' said a member.
The first Earth Cleanse Campaign was flagged off on 23 September 2011 from the Raj Ghat when the Dera Sacha Sauda volunteers cleaned the entire city of Delhi in less than two days. Gurgaon, Faridabad, Rohtak and Narela are the other areas in the NCR where this drive has been conducted successfully.
'Never has one seen Noida so sparklingly cleaned within a few hours. From the stench-yards of open drains to dead shrubbery , all vestiges of mosquito and germ food was dug out and lined for disposal,' said a resident of Noida.
'As Guruji flagged off the event after sweeping the road, it was a giant machine set in motion , made of millions of men and women acting in unison. This drive concluded with aggregation of hundreds of tonnes of solid waste. The campaign divided Noida into four different zones. People of every caste, creed, class and vocation ion including highly placed dignitaries joined the campaign,' said a member.
'This initiative would bring gender equality and true empowerment,' said another member.
