Part of a Cleanliness Drive



I have been a part of a NGO named as Youth For Parivarthan!! Recently we had a Cleanliness Drive organised in Bangalore on Occasion of Gandhi Jayanthi. Our honorable PM launched Swach Bharath Campaign too on the same day. We were there by 8.30 in the morning. The walls and the surrounding area was very dirty. We cleaned the ugly footpath of the waste. We removed all those posters put up on the wall and then painted the wall red in colour with some flower stencils. I must say it looks quite good from the state it was in before. The feeling you get from doing such work is something i cannot express. It's fun too. I must say i met some new and nice people too. Overall just a perfect start to an awesome day. Just to mention This NGO has been doing works such as this since a few months. This was the 7th Drive we took out. So just a small request to all, Please stop littering. Most of all Stop being a SPIT-personality!!

A Month back i was travelling with my friend in BMTC [ Local Transit of Bangalore]. My friend bought a ticket and i had a pass. Everything was normal till then. My friend handed over rupees 20 for the ticket. The price of the ticket was 17 or 18 ( oops... i don't remember). Generally the conductors if they do not have the change , they write the amount on the back of the ticket and pay back later but this time it was EPIC. This conductor had some toffees in his pocket. He gave my friend 2 toffees in return. Yep the value of the toffees was equal to exact change value the conductor had to give. I was surprised and just exchanged a smile with the conductor. Till That day i had seen people giving a toffee instead of 1 rupee as change but that was in some small stalls. That day was the first time i ever saw a bus conductor do it. Now i get it why people say that it's time that the Indian government Declares Eclairs as the new one rupee!!
