GANDHINAGAR, DEC 19

Stating that though Gandhiji had founded Gujarat Vidyapith, but Gandhian values were nowhere to be seen on the campus today, newly-installed Chancellor and Governor Acharya Devvrat has launched a cleanliness drive with the help of his wife and sanitation workers of the Ahmedabad Municipal Corporation (AMC), an official said on Monday.

आज गुजरात विद्यापीठ के आदिवासी संशोधन केन्द्र के म्युजियम संकुल में बड़े स्तर पर सफाई की। दीवारों पर से परतें और झाले हटाए और प्लास्टिक की बोतलें, शीशियां और कूड़ा- करकट उठाया। यहां विद्यार्थियों से प्रतिदिन नियमित श्रमदान करने का आहवान किया और वृक्षारोपण भी किया। pic.twitter.com/thmAzKnGjf

As per a release issued by the Raj Bhavan, nearly 40 truck-loads of garbage were removed from the campus since the drive was launched on December 16.

आज गुजरात विद्यापीठ में लगातार दूसरे दिन भी सफाई अभियान चलाया। अहमदाबाद महानगरपालिका के सहयोग से दो दिन में यहां से बीस ट्रक से भी ज्यादा कचरा निकाला गया। कल जिस स्थान पर सफाई की थी वहां फूलों के पौधों का आरोपण भी किया। यहां खेलकूद के मैदान को जल्द खेलने योग्य बनाए जाएंगे। pic.twitter.com/WXprDxcxja

In October, Devvrat was appointed as the chancellor of Mahatma Gandhi-founded Gujarat Vidyapith, a deemed university with its campus on Ashram Road in the city.

जूनागढ़ जिले में प्राकृतिक कृषि के प्रचार प्रसार के लिए 4 से 14 जनवरी, 2023 तक ऋषि, कृषि, संत यात्रा का आयोजन किया गया है। इस यात्रा के दौरान प्राकृतिक कृषि रथ के माध्यम से गांव-गांव जाकर किसानों को प्रेरित किया जाएगा। यात्रा में सहभागी हो रहे किसानों एवं कार्यकर्तागण को बधाई दी। pic.twitter.com/QrB5BB1hNn

After noticing filth and garbage on the campus, the governor himself started the cleanliness drive three days ago with a broom and shovel. On his request, the AMC also deployed 40 sanitation workers, four earthmovers, a tractor and a water tanker, the release stated.

गुजरात विद्यापीठ में आज फिर से व्यापक स्तर पर स्वच्छता अभियान चलाया। आज के स्वच्छता अभियान में अहमदाबाद म्युनिसिपल कॉरपोरेशन के अधिकारी एवं स्वच्छता कर्मी भी सम्मिलित हुए। महात्मा गांधी जी द्वारा स्थापित इस विद्यापीठ में फैली गंदगी को देखकर मन अत्यंत व्यथित होता है। pic.twitter.com/Mi3cAlrBcR

On Monday, the governor’s wife Darshna Devi also joined him in the cleanliness drive. The couple removed cobwebs from the walls of various buildings inside the campus and cleared garbage from the floor using large brooms.

The governor also planted saplings on the land which he had cleaned two days ago. The playground was also cleaned and the area was levelled using four truck-loads of clay with the AMC’s help, the release said.

As per the statement, the governor was shocked and surprised that not a single person living on the campus had joined his cleanliness drive so far and he urged students staying in hostels to clean the campus regularly.

“Willingness is needed for maintaining cleanliness. How can a campus which houses 1,400 persons remain so dirty?” the governor had asked.

“It is painful to watch the lifestyle of those who call themselves Gandhian. We need to work with commitment and honesty to make this institution as per Gandhiji’s ideals,” the statement said quoting the governor.
