Itanagar: Celebrating World Forest Day, more than 80 volunteers in Arunachal Pradesh capital Itanagar joined hands on Tuesday to clean the  Yagamso river at Indira Gandhi Park.

The volunteers reportedly cleaned up four trucks of garbage.

The cleaning drive was initiated by NGOs – Abralow Memorial Multipurpose Society and Youth Mission for Clean River – in association with Arunachal Dogs & Cats Rescue and Arunachal Yuva Shakti, and supported by the Itanagar Smart City Development Corporation Limited, reports East Mojo.

The wasters which were collected during the drive included  diapers and sanitary disposables, meat, household mixed waste, construction waste, thermocol, broken crockery, dead animals, and electronic items.

Mission Clean Yagamso coordinator, Prem Taba, thanked volunteers for being part of the event.

" Here's the before and after pictures of today's river cleaning program. Can briefly rest and watch the sunrise on a grateful universe. Immensely grateful to all the volunteers who turned up for the cleanup," he tweeted.
