A renovated bus shelter was dedicated for use by the people during the 31st weekly shramadaan organised by Ramakrishna Mission at Panjimogaru on Sunday.

Locals had erected a temporary shed to serve as the shelter in Panjimogaru-Vidyanagara area. It lacked facilities. They had urged the Ramakrishna Mission to erect a new one. A new one was thus erected with seats, tiled flooring, iron and sound roofing and a hoarding carrying a message on cleanliness.

The MRPL had sponsored the construction of the shelter. The same area was cleaned on Sunday. Heaps of garbage in front of M.V. Shetty College was removed. Three black spots prone to littering were identified and care was taken to discourage people from dirtying these spots. Drains were cleaned by removing mud and dirt. Big potholes beside the roads were filled up and levelled.

Gandhinagar Bus Stand was thoroughly cleaned and the nameplate was washed.
