ISLAMABAD: The Chitral Environmental Protection Society (CHEPS) organized a successful cleanliness drive in Trail 5, Islamabad, aimed at raising awareness about the importance of environmental conservation and combating littering.
The event saw enthusiastic participation from students from Chitral and Gilgit-Baltistan, who joined CHEPS in their mission to promote a cleaner and greener environment.
The program commenced with an introductory address by CHEPS Chairman, Rehmat Ali Jaffar, who highlighted the significance of environmental protection and the detrimental impact of littering.
