Project:

Our project went on with peaks and toughs for three days. On the first day we had a session with college students about cleanliness around the world. The session went with some lectures from the team and from the superiors of the college. In the afternoon session of the day we went to municipal office of anantapur and went on with clean-up drive. The next day is the tough day of our project. Its been with the saplings from the nursery due to some Haritaharam which is going on in our state at that time. Finally we got only seventy saplings that too with some recommendations from the officials. Our day has been done with that including the students. Later we had some refreshments with those students in the evening. Finally the third day we together dug some pits for saplings in the morning session and we are almost done with that. For planting we thought of one more day but students said that they are ready for doing it on the same day and we went on with that planting the saplings. It took around seven in the evening. And we ended up there.
