More than 3000 NSU students, faculty members and administrative heads of NSU participated in the road cleaning event.
Speaking at the event, Mayor Annisul Huq said: “Today’s event is one of the most appreciated initiatives among all other awareness campaigns. If we all do our individual part properly, Dhaka will become a clean city within seven days.” Later he thanked NSU authorities for taking such a praiseworthy initiative.
Mayor Sayed Khokon said: “It would not be possible to keep the city clean with two mayors and few employees. Each of us has to play the role of Mayor.” He especially encouraged the young generation to create awareness to stop littering around and use bin for waste materials.
