OMR GREENS - A NEW BEGINNING
FOR A CLEAN OMR
Residents of Mantri
Synergy apartments
in OMR as
part of their community
initiative OMR Greens
involved themselves in
cleaning the Sai Temple
in Kelambakkam on 2 December.
A strong team of about a
dozen members of OMR
Greens carrying placards
started on an awareness
walk from Mantri Synergy
apartments to Sai Temple.
Placards highlighted
on green initiatives like
keeping the surroundings
clean, against dumping of
garbage, mosquito menace
etc.
OMR Greens on reaching
the temple got down
to cleaning up the garbage
littered in and around the
temple. Kelambakkam
Panchayat president, Mr
G Venkatesan participated
and appealed to OMR
Greens to organize a similar
campaign on Kelambakkam
Main Road near
the petrol station during a
weekend. He further made
arrangements to shift the
garbage by tractor trolley
and deployed a couple of
tricycles to carry them.
Sai Temple head priest
Sri Acharya in his part
had arranged for planting
a few samplings of pongai
near the temple to mark
the event. This is the third
campaign since the launch
of OMR Greens in September
last.
Earlier OMR Greens
were involved in cleaning
the garbage heap close
to Hindustan University
and another at the main
road junction at Padur.
OMR Green team comprises
of Pravin, Pandian,
Bala, Shine, Santhakumar,
Neeraj, Pandey, P S Sridhar
and family, Gopalan,
Viswanath, Vasu, GVK
and family. Mr S Kumar
of Saravana Medicals took
much effort to organize
the campaign.
It is significant to make
a special mention about
Aravind an enthusiastic
school student who took
much pain in helping the
volunteers while cleaning
the temple. Employees of
the Sai Temple too cooperated
well with the volunteers
of OMR Greens.
