In line with the theme of this year World Environment Day-2022 i.e. “Only One Earth”, they have collaborated and invited all like-minded people to join this Cycling and Walking Campaign on 3rd June, 2022 to showcase their efforts in reducing pollution on this planet. Their friends, well-wishers and others from neighborhood community came forward and contributed their participation by joining hands in this drive.
