This cleanup addressed accumulated garbage, including branches and plastics, which had resulted from recent heavy rains. The drive saw substantial public participation, reflecting a collective commitment to environmental conservation.
Officials underscored the importance of maintaining sanitation ahead of Dussehra, a period when thousands of devotees are anticipated to visit. Development work at the temple was also inspected. The strict implementation of a plastic ban within the shrine complex was particularly emphasized as a crucial aspect of preserving its sanctity and cleanliness for pilgrims.
