Resonia Ltd’s Khavda IV C Transmission Project Collects 907 Kilograms of Waste at Ubharat Beach
Valsad: On World Environment Day, Resonia Limited’s Khavda IV C Transmission Project organized an employee-led beach cleanliness drive at Ubharat Beach, Valsad demonstrating their collective commitment to a cleaner and healthier environment. Over 100 dedicated team members took the time from their busy mornings to collect and remove 907 kilograms of waste, which was then responsibly managed. This effort was made possible by the Forest Department’s gracious permissions and is resonant with Resonia’s aspirations to contribute to local ecologies and community welfare.
World Environment Day is not just a day of observance but also one that asks all of us to renew our commitment to do our bit towards a cleaner and greener future for our children. Ubharat Beach is a scenic coastal setting just 50 kilometers from Surat, one that offers both residents and tourists an opportunity to enjoy the coastal air and provides respite from their daily grind. It is also reflective of the negative impact of thoughtless littering on India’s 7,500 km coastline with increasing plastic pollution posing a severe risk to marine life. As coastal regions contend with the pressures of urbanization and tourism, such hands-on restoration efforts are essential to reset the dial and encourage the care and preservation of shared natural spaces.
Kamlesh Garg, Project Director of Khavda IV C Transmission Project Limited, thanked the volunteers and organizing team and said: “Resonia is deeply committed to sustainability, and we believe in translating that commitment into meaningful action. This beach cleanup wasn’t just about removing waste; but also, an opportunity for our team to engage and give back to the local community. These initiatives are crucial in inculcating environmental stewardship and encouraging sustainable practices among our employees and partners.”
Resonia Ltd. partnered strategically with the Drishti Foundation Trust, a renowned pan-India NGO with a proven track record in environmental initiatives. This collaboration was crucial, as the foundation provided indispensable support with administrative permissions, stringent safety protocols and efficient waste disposal.
Commenting on the successful collaboration Dinesh Kumar Gautam, Founder – Drishti Foundation Trust, said, “This clean-up is part of a larger movement to recognize beaches as not merely tourist attractions, but also complex living ecosystems that serve as barometers for the environmental health of our planet. It was great to partner with Resonia’s Khavda project for this initiative.”
