Volunteers of different organisations cleaned the ‘Snana Ghatta’ (bathing ghat) on the banks of the Netravati and the road between Snana Ghatta and Dharmasthala on Wednesday.
Members of Shourya disaster management team, Shree Kshetra Dharmasthala Rural Development Project, a non-government organisation, devotees of Dharmasthala Manjunatha temple and local people of Dharmasthala took part in the cleaning from 9 a.m. to noon.
They picked up plastic bags, plastic bottles, and other waste from the river, from the river bank, and the road.
Will rev up construction of Amaravati, says Andhra Pradesh’s MA&UD Minister Narayana. An action plan will be prepared to complete its construction in about two years and position it among the top five capital cities in the country, he vows. In the name of three capitals, the YSRCP government failed to develop any city in the State, he alleges.
