1. BM_MUMBAI: Minutes of drive and meeting
Hello Everyone,
The juhu beach cleanliness drive saw the largest turn out of BM Mumbai
members so far for an activity.
In all we were 13 volutneers who were present for the drive. We began
by cleaning a small stretch of the beach. which eventually turned out
to be quite large.
Initially when we all were cleaning we got curious looks by onlookers
and passer by's alike. Some appreciated our work some were plain
indifferent.
We managed to get some ppl to help us with the efforts in cleaning the beach.
After the drive we all gathered and decided on a few things (not exhaustive)
1. We needed to engage in activites where we could sustain them.
2. Based on above we have decided to continue our efforts in cleaning
juhu beach.
3. To get local residential associations and colleges involved in the activites.
4. To find out about lack of dustbins on the beach.
Other issues discussed were about
1. Holding series of RTI lectures
2. Planting 200 trees in memory of the blast victims (details of which
are being worked out by mr jalan, akalpitaji and abhijit)
We expect a bigger turnout next time. Place being the same, the day
will be decided by concensus on the group.
regards
pooja

BM - Mumbai Cleanliness Drive. Lets show it to them...WE HAVE IT IN US
BHARAT UDAY MISSION
MUMBAI CHAPTER
PROUDLY PRESENTS
JUHU BEACH - CLEANLINESS DRIVE PART 2
ON 30TH OF JULY 2006.
After the Enthusiastic Response to the cleanliness drive last saturday, we decided to continue our relation further with the beach of Mumbai. Hope we get to see a better turn out this time.
Mumbai is ranked one of the most polluted cities in the world. With huge population density and lack of commitment from BMC for cleanliness is making the crisis worst. Pollution is everywhere, in Air, in Water, in Land with various forms. It is affecting day to day life of a Mumbaikar putting them at huge health risk. Also we face bigger crisis like floods destroying the routine life of the city.
At Bharat Uday Mission, our goal is construct a better society. We are constantly putting our efforts at various social and political levels to improve the life of average man, a true reflection of India. Taking pollution is one big social issue; group has decided to go for a cleaning drive. Our goal is to clean the city and also create some awareness about cleanliness. Our first mission on the the lines is cleaning part of Juhu Beach, pride of Mumbai but one of the dirtiest beach in the country.
As one of our members (Naresh) said ,
"Social work uplifts the soul and has greater participation".
By sharing the common goal of BM, we probably are on our way to having uplifted souls.
