Someone rightly said, Cleanliness leads to Godliness… but
adding on to the same, cleanliness also leads to good health and better
environment. It is important to keep your home as well as your surroundings
lean so that no health hazards develop in your neighbourhood. The first and
foremost step that one should start with is to stop littering. With excessive
littering on the streets, there are a number of diseases that crop up.
Fortis Hospital,
Ludhiana recently started a campaign with the slogan, ‘Clean Ludhiana, Green
Ludhiana’, where they are trying to spread awareness amongst the residents
about good health and cleanliness and how both of them are inter-related. The
Administration Head of Fortis Hospital, Ludhiana, Dr. Harpreet Brar, led the
campaign.
From doctors to nursing staff and other senior and junior
staff of the hospital enthusiastically participated in this campaign. There
were a total of 75 members who participated in this campaign. It was one of the
attempts to make the citizens of the city realize their responsibility towards
the environment. It is them who make it dirty and it is their duty to clean it
now too. Dr Brar said that he along with his team of Fortis Hospital is a
strong believer in a cleaner, greener and sustainable environment. It is high
time that the citizens realized their responsibility and if we don’t start with
a cleaner city today, our coming generations will have to deal with a very bad
environment. So, it is not only for a cleaner and healthier today that we are
fighting, it is for a better tomorrow.
One of the major concerns of the team of the campaign was
that with this environment, there are a number of communicable diseases
spreading in the society and to stop the same, we have to first keep our
surroundings clean. Dr. Bar says that the idea to start this campaign was an
inspiration from the Swachh Bharat Abhiyaan started by our Prime Minister
around the country for a cleaner environment. This is how they are trying to
contribute to the same.
It is not only the government or the authorities which are
responsible in creating the clean environment, but it is such a huge task that
every citizen of the country will have to get involved and be a part of the
same and do their bit for their environment.
