March 5, 2021
Islamabad: Volunteers including men, women and children collected 120 large bags of garbage and trash from three viewpoints of Margallah Hills on Thursday.
The spring cleanup activity at Pirsohawa Road was organised under the Prime Minister’s campaign of ‘Clean and Green Pakistan’ by the SMEC Oil & Gas in collaboration with Islamabad Wildlife Management Board (IWMB).
The Margallah Hills National Park is the hallmark of Islamabad s beauty. There are many viewpoints established on the Pirsohawa Road from where one can witness breathtaking views of twin cities. Unfortunately, due to apathy of visitors the viewpoints have become littering grounds. People bring plastic bags full of consumables and leave behind plastic shoppers, food, drink containers, bottles and other non-biodegradable materials.
