Vrindavan beautification

Introduction 

A special cleaning program operated by 13 full time employees and two tractors with trolleys that have been engaged by the FFLV society to beautify the 11 km. long Parikrama route, used by thousands of Pilgrims and visitors of Vrindavan daily.  Varahadev Project also provides garbage removal from Vrindavan’s central ramp and distributes free literature to local residents on environmental issues.

All 10 cleaning friends daily sweep the roads and alleys, clean drains, and go door to door collecting the garbage & shifting it to the dumping ground. The central ramp on Yugala Ghat is also kept clean on a daily basis, all garbage from the central ramp is shifted to the dumping ground at Bhath road. Only after required sorting of plastic/polythene from biodegradable waste is the garbage taken to the site, and when the dump is filled up, it will be covered with fertile soil and trees will be planted on the leveled ground. The aim of Varahadev Project is to create awareness and keep Vrindavan clean and green. Free dustbins and jute bags (to avoid polythene) were also distributed to the local people.

Opening 

Project Varahadev was launched on April 2^nd, 2003, by performing a Pooja Ceremony & devotional Kirtan music by FFLV’s enthusiastic members.
