Delhi News: On the occasion of World Water Day 2026, a large-scale cleanliness drive was organised at the ITO Yamuna Ghat in Delhi by the Sanskriti Youth Foundation. The initiative witnessed enthusiastic participation from young volunteers who came together to restore the polluted stretch of the Yamuna riverbank. The campaign focused on removing heaps of garbage and plastic waste scattered across the Chhath Ghat, highlighting the urgent need for sustained environmental action.
Volunteers actively collected and segregated waste, spreading awareness among local residents and passersby about river conservation and responsible waste disposal. The drive not only improved the cleanliness of the ghat area but also served as a reminder of the collective responsibility towards protecting natural water bodies like the Yamuna, which remains under severe environmental stress.
Speaking on the occasion, Deepak Tyagi, Vice President, Co-Founder & Operation Head, said, “World Water Day is not just a celebration but a call to action. Our mission is to inspire communities, especially youth, to take ownership of their surroundings and work consistently towards a cleaner and healthier environment. Small steps like today’s initiative can lead to significant change when done together.”
