Troubled by the revolting spectacle of garbage strewn across the hill located in Fergusson College premises, a group of young professionals yesterday came together to rid the place of the rubbish.

Before and After: Litter strewn across the slope at Fergusson College; (below) the hill after it was cleaned yesterday

Acting on their own initiative, the six eco-warriors cleaned up the hill, collecting 20 bags of rubbish. The concerned citizens decided not to approach the civic body, but made it their own responsibility to clean up the mound of filth. These young professionals met on the popular social networking site Facebook, where like-minded netizens were requested to join hands to undertake the Herculean task.
