The beach cleaning was held on the sea shore at Panambur beach wherein Coast Guards, NCC 6 Karnataka Air Squadron, Rotary Club, Baikampady and Corporation Bank held the meaningful event.

    Good job. This should inspire the locals to keep their beach clean as well and teach visitors not to dump waste materials

    Creating awareness is one, but developing awareness is the key. Let these youngsters be first taught to keep their houses and surroundings clean. The whole of Mangalore and the beaches would be clean. The sponsors could better train their money to improving the standards of the poor and suffeing masses.

    Congratulations sponsors of the Garbage free movement in Mangalore beache.Last week I had been to Mangalore and was surprised to see all over the city despoit of garbages(papers,plastic bags,empty water bottles etc)in all parts of the city/lodges etc up to 10 a.m in the morning when the city life is active.It gives a very bad ambience to the city.It was worst scene through V.T Road where huge amount of garbage is filled on road sides with dirty smell creating lot of inconvenience to commuters which makes to feel that whethger our MCC is so much blind for city's cleaniliness.MCC should concentrate on this point.

    It is pleasing to see that once a year beach cleaning programme has caught up so well in Mangalore on the International Beach Clean up Day, and good on you all Coach Guards, young NCC cadets, and other voluntary social workers, for your enthusiastic and whole-hearted efforts. I feel this exercise should be carried out more often. Nothing more will please a person or a family to visit a prestine clean beach or a sea-shore in evening hours or during the weekends, to get away from their busy working schedules, just to relax and watch the sea waves and the surrounding natural beauty, also so nicely described by A.S.Mathew in his comments above.

    Excellent job volunteers. This job should have done by the township or government should have given to some private agency to take care of the cleanness,neatness and safety of our beautiful beach. This cleaning is required at Malpe beach also.

    On August 7th I was there with my family at Malpe beach. Sea was rough. Couple of young students swimming, playing in the sea in almost neck level water. Unfortunately one student was drowned in the sea. His colleagues brought him to the shore shortly and at that time he was alive and they were giving him first aid but nothing come out. There were no emergency services at the beach to rush such cases to the hospital quickly. If they took him to the hospital immediately he may not have died. I saw the police people also on the beach but their action was slow in such emergencies.

    God has created a beautiful earth
    for human habitation, and if we
    make it dirty due to our carelessness and irresponsibility,
    then God is not going to send
    the angels to do the clean up job.

    These photos are inspiring
    pictures. We need to get this
    habit of cleaning the dirty public
    places, so that we all can enjoy
    the real beauty of the nature in a clean environment.

    Thought leads to word-word
    leads to action-action leads to
    habit-habit leads to character
    and character leads to destiny.
