Plogging is a combination of jogging with picking up litter. A special day for plogging wherein cadets of the school picked up litter while jogging on the campus. The NCC cadets conducted 'Plogging Run' where they collected plastic waste bottles, plastic covers, litter on either side of township roads.
The work done by cadets was appreciated by the residents, some senior citizens and an NRI stopped vehicles and appreciated the cadets for social work. NCC cadets collected 60kg of plastic waste and took oath that they would not throw any litter on the roads.
Cadets campaigned that public awareness on plastic waste should be thrown in the dustbins only. The programme was organised by the NCC officer ZPHS BHEL, A Damodar, and Laxmi, the chairperson of the school management committee, staff members Shankar Babu, Ambadas and teachers also participated in the said event. The entire campus was made plastic-free by the efforts of the enthusiastic and environmentally aware cadets.
