Ahmedabad: Gujarat Governor Acharya Devvrat who is also the Chancellor of Gujarat Vidyapith, a university established by Mahatam Gandhi ran a cleanliness drive in the institution in the past two days.

Seeing that Mahatma Gandhi’s own university was in poor condition, the governor took matters into his own hands and started cleaning the campus himself with the help of sanitation workers from Ahmedabad Municipal Corporation.

The Governor took to Twitter and wrote, “Today, for the second consecutive day, a cleanliness drive was conducted in Gujarat Vidyapith. With the help of Ahmedabad Municipal Corporation, more than twenty trucks of garbage were removed from here in two days. Planted flower plants at the place where it was cleaned yesterday. The playground here will be made playable soon.”

आज गुजरात विद्यापीठ में लगातार दूसरे दिन भी सफाई अभियान चलाया। अहमदाबाद महानगरपालिका के सहयोग से दो दिन में यहां से बीस ट्रक से भी ज्यादा कचरा निकाला गया। कल जिस स्थान पर सफाई की थी वहां फूलों के पौधों का आरोपण भी किया। यहां खेलकूद के मैदान को जल्द खेलने योग्य बनाए जाएंगे। pic.twitter.com/WXprDxcxja

A day before yesterday also he had done the same thing and tweeted,  “A massive cleanliness campaign was again launched in Gujarat Vidyapeeth today. Officers and sanitation workers of Ahmedabad Municipal Corporation also participated in today’s cleanliness drive. The mind is extremely distressed to see the filth spread in this Vidyapith established by Mahatma Gandhi.”

गुजरात विद्यापीठ में आज फिर से व्यापक स्तर पर स्वच्छता अभियान चलाया। आज के स्वच्छता अभियान में अहमदाबाद म्युनिसिपल कॉरपोरेशन के अधिकारी एवं स्वच्छता कर्मी भी सम्मिलित हुए। महात्मा गांधी जी द्वारा स्थापित इस विद्यापीठ में फैली गंदगी को देखकर मन अत्यंत व्यथित होता है। pic.twitter.com/Mi3cAlrBcR

After taking the charge as Chancellor of Gujarat Vidyapith on 20th October this year, the governor has been frequently visiting the campus only to find out the dismal condition of the university. Last month also he himself cleaned the Hostel premises of the university to inspire the students to do the same.  DeshGujarat
