Targeted Mobilization Targets Plastic Hazards in Khedki Daula
Environmental activist Surendra Singh Choudhary—widely recognized as Bittu Tabahi—mobilized volunteers and local residents across Gurugram to execute an intensive cleanup drive along the Khedki Daula stretch. The drive resulted in the removal and proper disposal of 2,435 kilograms of discarded single-use plastic, domestic litter, and industrial packaging materials. The Gurugram drive marks the second phase of a regional campaign that commenced along the Yamuna banks in Delhi before moving across key NCR transit hubs.

Safeguarding Livestock and Local Ecosystems
Highlighting the ecological hazards posed by unchecked roadside dumping, Choudhary emphasized that unsegregated plastic waste presents a severe life-threatening risk to stray cattle and local fauna in fringe urban areas like Khedki Daula. Mixed garbage dumps frequently attract grazing animals, leading to fatal plastic ingestion.
Using social media platforms to coordinate logistics and rally youth volunteers, the team spent hours physically segregating recyclables from organic waste before handing over non-recyclable materials to municipal waste processing streams.
Expanding Grassroots Environmental Footprint Across India
The Gurugram success builds on a series of viral community cleanup initiatives led by Choudhary. Having previously led independent rejuvenation efforts at the Ajnar River in Madhya Pradesh and Turahalli Forest in Bengaluru, his hands-on approach has drawn national and international recognition.
Addressing supporters following the completion of the Gurugram phase, Choudhary expressed gratitude to local volunteers while calling on municipal authorities and citizen bodies to implement stricter door-to-door waste segregation and eliminate open dumping points along highway corridors.
