The citizens group will also take help from the Palike to install e-toilets soon as part of their ‘Beautiful Begur’ campaign.
The federation celebrated its 52nd week of the Swachh Begur cleaning drive with the programme ‘Parikrama’ on Sunday by conducting a walkathon. As part of the event, they also conducted a free health camp for BBMP workers.
“We’re working to support the government machinery to complete the pending civic works. We still don’t have the Cauvery water connection, which will be our top priority. We also want good roads,” Prakash added.
