Date: 28-Nov-2015 Location: Dabri Mor flyover, Delhi Flyover pillars are covered with layers of posters. The place was rescued by our volunteers who first removed those posters and then did some artwork on the pillars along with some messages. Our effort was also appreciated by Mr. Rajesh Rishi, MLA Janakpuri, who was present there along with his team of engineers. He assured that he has a plan for improvement of that place and would be working towards it. He has also extended his help to us. Volunteers did a splendid job to change the face of the place, but still a lot needs to be done for the place. We need more volunteers. Join us: http://wmtc.org.in
