“Millet & Swachhata Walkathon is a great initiative. MCD is proud to be a partner in this event. We all need to make changes in our lifestyle for a healthy living. Just as millets is a healthy option, a total fitness cannot be achieved if sanitation is not taken care of. We all should segregate our waste, say no to single-use plastic and help MCD in keeping our surroundings clean. These habits along with adopting healthy food and exercising, surely will keep us fit and healthy,” quoted Ms. Ankita Mishra, IAS Deputy Commissioner, Sadar Paharganj Zone, Municipal Corporation of Delhi.
