New Delhi Close to four lakh volunteers of the Haryana-based Dera Sacha Sauda sect carried out a massive ‘clean Delhi’ campaign in Delhi on Wednesday.

The city was divided into 13 zones and 329 sectors and the organisation provided 8 lakh brooms and other equipment, including vans to pick up waste.

The campaign was inaugurated by the sect leader, Gurmeet Ram Rahim Singh at 8 in the morning from Rajghat.

On the occasion, he said, “Delhi is the heart of the country and to clean the city up is symbolic. Other than cleaning the streets, we will go to houses and educate people them about methods to keep the city clean.”

The organisers said that the campaign was a run-up to the sect’s annual celebrations on September 23.

Singh said, “On that day, we will organise blood and eye donation camps as well as taking a pledge against corruption.”

Though majority of the volunteers were from Haryana, there were some who had come to join the campaign from other parts of the country as well.

Ranvir Yadav, from Bhagalpur in Bihar, said, “I have been a follower of the sect for years. The Dera Sacha Sauda is one organisation that takes up tasks for social cause.”

Thanks a lot.

good job by Ransan on 02 Nov 2011

I have never seen in my life such an organisation, truly saying it was a great initiative by dera sacaha sauda chief, so many people are blaming him, so many cases are filed against him still he has zeal to work for society n i don't think so he is a normal human being, he is truly and surely a godly figure otherwise i have seen people giving lectures in satsangs but to come in the field and do unique social welfare works is done only by baba ram rahim, solute to him and his followers, you guys r doing wonderful jobs, i really don't have words right now to praise you , but thank you so much to clean our city and to save us from diseases.

Dera Sacha Sauda by Armaan on 01 Nov 2011

Dera Sacha Sauda is a pious organization where 70 works of welfare are in action summarizing these are blood donation, stop prostitution (Bhagat yodha are the boys who are marrying to those girls who are leaving prostitution and called shubh devi), eradicating drug addiction, house to poor, poor girls marriage, rehabilitation, free medical camps and free operations and free treatments, food to hungary, blood donation camps like this 70 works of welfare are run by Saint Gurmeet Ram Rahim Singh Ji Insan to improve the society and arouse humanity and to remove caste-creed distinction, We all are children of God this is taught by Guru Ji. The world is watching the how Saint Gurmeet Ram Rahim Singh Ji Insan is proceeding on His Holy path despite of devil people are filling baseless and totally false cases on Guru Ji. God will punish to such devil minded people who are creating obstacles in the true way of Dera Sacha Sauda. Dhan Dhan Satguru Tera Hi Asra.

Nice to hear such a act of humanity welfare. Dera Sacha Sauda is doing such kind of humanity welfare acts in past as well but didn't came into light for public as hardly any news paper or news channnel publish these.
