Toshiba India participates in Swachh Bharat Abhiyan

In line with the government’s Swachh Bharat Abhiyan (Clean India mission) and Toshiba Corporation’s global initiative - “Simultaneous Social Contribution Action by Toshiba Group’s 200,000 Employees 2015”, Toshiba group companies in India today organized a cleanliness drive at a community park in Mayur Vihar Phase III, New Delhi.

As a follow-up to the last year, this year’s cleanliness drive envisaged 60 employees from 8 Toshiba group companies, along with the support and guidance of Delhi Parks and Gardens Society (DPGS).

Mr. Kenji Urai, MD, Toshiba India Pvt. Ltd. participated in the activity and shared his views on everyone’s responsibility towards the environment. He said, “It’s very important to continue cleanliness activities and I’m very glad to join the drive again. I thank everyone for their participation in making this day successful. I hope that people who play in this park will also come forward and would continue to take care of the park and keep it clean as a follow-up activity to our cleanliness drive. We will continue to conduct such kind of activities which would help in the further upkeep of society.”

“We believe that business groups like Toshiba have a key role in helping the country achieve 'Swachh Bharat Abhiyan'. Toshiba has been partners to India’s growth for over 50 years and enhancing people’s live directly and indirectly. This gives us the responsibility to make a meaningful difference to the community through our contributions”, he further added.
