Speaking on the occasion  Mohammad Nazeer stated “No policy of the government is effective without cooperation from the general public. If Mangalore has attracted the attention of the whole nation today regarding cleanliness, the main credit goes to the likes of  Ramakrishna Mission’s Swacchata Abhiyan  which is being carried out consistently with the support of the public. Because of this Abhiyan Mangalore got first place in India in solid waste management. Already Mangalore city corporation has joined hands with Ramakrishna Mission in garbage segregation and  management from each and every household. We look forward to support this Abhiyan more actively in the coming days.” Mosa Shareef, Harshakumar Kedige, Srikar Prabhu, Bharathi Bhat, Mahesh K K and more than 200  volunteers were present on this occasion.
