Inaugurating the programme at the District Collector’s bungalow, Municipal Chairman Kiliyamannil Yakoob exhorted the students to be in the forefront in maintaining the surroundings clean.

Councillor Harris Amiyan was present at the function.

The areas the students cleaned included Manjeri Road, Thamarakkuzhi and Kottappadi. The students removed a large number of obscene cinema posters from the town. Mr. Amiyan said that the second phase of the cleanliness programme would be launched next week. The students would distribute pamphlets highlighting the importance of personal hygiene and cleanliness to the houses in all the 37 wards of the municipality.
