Currently Chardham Yatra is going on in Uttarakhand. A large number of devotees throng here despite bad weather. At the same time, due to the continuous increase in the number of devotees visiting Gangotri and Yamunotri, the two dhams located in Uttarkashi, the dirtiness of the dhams has also increased. In view of this, the district administration and the Ganga Vidhan Manch will start the cleanliness campaign from today. Under this, cleanliness campaign will be conducted at Gangotri Ghat.

Char Dham Yatra started last month from April 22

A lot of dirt is seen on the ghat due to the devotees coming to Chardham. This initiative has been taken by the district administration and the Ganga Vikha Manch, especially where the devotees bathe, where dirt is spread. Along with the cleanliness campaign, the district administration will also give a message to the people not to throw garbage here and there and pay attention to cleanliness.

Cleanliness campaign will be conducted at Gangotri Ghat

In view of the increasing number of devotees at Gangotri and Yamunotri dhams, the district administration and Ganga Vikas Manch will conduct a cleanliness drive at Gangotri ghat today. Gangotri Panch Mandir Samiti, Nagar Panchayat employees will also participate in this cleaning drive, who will conduct the cleanliness drive here. In fact, a large number of devotees from India and abroad flock here, bathe and pray in Mother Ganga, due to which the ghat remains very dirty.
