A manja clean-up drive at Hyderabad’s Indira Park hosted by the Animal Warriors Conservation Society (AWCS) on Saturday, February 1, resulted in the discovery of 40 kg of dangerous Chinese manja from trees.
The three-hour drive was attended by 40 volunteers from AWCS, Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation (GHMC), members of the HCL Foundation and the Head Held High Foundation. Despite their best efforts, the volunteers were able to clean only a fraction of the discarded Chinese manja from the park. Boom lifts were arranged by the GHMC to help in cleaning the manja from the trees.
