On the occasion of NCC Day, Eco Friends and NCC organized a massive rally against the indiscriminate use of polybags. The aim of the rally was to spread awareness in the masses to boycott the use of polybags and also to bring to the notice of the people that the littering of polybags had been declared a punishable offence by the Government of Uttar Pradesh.

The
rally started from Phoolbagh and passed through Bara Chauraha, Naveen
Market, Parade and finally culminated at Green Park Stadium. 500
NCC cadets from 17 UP Girls BTN and 59 UP BTN Kanpur actively participated
in the rally. The NCC cadets assembled at the Phoolbagh ground where
