Under the Navo Barmer campaign, Dabi aims to transform the city into a garbage-free environment by October 2, coinciding with Gandhi Jayanti. The initiative not only seeks to clean the streets but also aims to foster a sense of responsibility among citizens regarding cleanliness.

“Unless cleanliness becomes a habit for the citizens, no change is possible,” Dabi stated, reinforcing her belief in community participation as essential to the campaign’s success.

As the drive gains momentum, locals are encouraged to join in and contribute to making Barmer a cleaner, healthier place for all.
