ITANAGAR, 24 Aug: Youth Mission for Clean River (YMCR) and Abralow Memorial Multipurpose Society with the support of Itanagar Smart City Development Corporation Limited organized a river clean-up drive along the Yagamso River’s Energy Park stretch here on Saturday to mark the birthday of YMCR convenor-communication and campaign Techi Pali Tara.
Volunteers cleared clogged waterways and removed a large amount of waste from the river, aiming to raise awareness about the importance of keeping the Yagamso River clean. The event was seen as a social message encouraging citizens to dedicate their birthdays to environmental causes.
“Instead of the usual celebrations with friends and family, I decided to mark my birthday with a meaningful activity that benefits the environment,” said Techi Pali.
YMCR vice chairman Keyom Doni applauded the initiative and emphasized the need for such efforts to continue in the future.
He encouraged others to celebrate their birthdays in a similar manner, suggesting activities like plantation drives and environmental awareness programs in schools.
