society. The club joined EcoWatch and Indian Railways for organizing eco awareness

campaign and cleanliness drive at Krantivira Sangolli Rayanna Railway Station (City

Railway Station) on January 31, 2018.

Freedom and Cleanliness were the two cherished goals of Mahatma Gandhi, the Father of the Nation.

Out of these two goals, the “Freedom” was achieved on August 15, 1947 but still the other goal of

“Cleanliness” remained unfulfilled. Against this context, “Swachh Bharat Abhiyan” was conceived

and was started as a mass movement by the Government of India on October 2, 2014 to sensitize people

about maintaining cleanliness not only in their residences but also in the surroundings. One of the

specific objectives of the initiative is to eradicate open defecation by October 2, 2019, the 150th

anniversary of the birth of Mahatma Gandhi.

The main objective of the campaign was

to create awareness among the general

passengers, railway employees and other

stake-holders of the railway station about

waste management , maintaining

cleanliness and hygiene. The students

along with the staff of Indian Railways

took out a procession all across the railway station, including the platforms and surrounding areas

outside the station to create awareness on eco-system by chanting slogans of “Clean India, Our India”,

“Go Green, Get Clean”, and “Namma Bharata Swachh Bharata”. After the procession, students

actively participated in cleaning the platform, tracks inside the railway station and the area outside the

railway station.
