On 2 October, Gandhi Jayanti, during Wildlife Week, MNCT organised a clean-up drive at Pawapuri Jal Mandir, a prominent Jain pilgrimage site visited by numerous tourists. The initiative collected approximately 250 kg of waste, helping reduce pollution in this important habitat for hundreds of migratory waterbirds. The drive also aimed to raise awareness among local communities and visitors about responsible tourism, waste management, and the importance of protecting wetlands for wildlife and biodiversity.
