The Sri Kshetra Dharmasthala Rural Development Project, a non-government organisation, has planned to clean 16,797 places of prayer and worship across the State ahead of the Independence Day celebrations. This drive is being conducted nearly for a decade as per the direction of Pattadhikari and Project President D Veerendra Heggade and his wife Hemavathi V Heggade as they believed that places of religious importance were part of everyone’s life, said SKDRDP Executive Director S.S. Anil Kumar in a release. Besides SHG members, members of managing committees of religious places, Jana Jagruthi members, Navachetana Samithi members, Shaurya Emergency Response team members, local bodies members and village residents take part in the initiative. As many as 3,95,724 volunteers and others are expected to participate in this Independence Day cleanliness drive.
