Sugee Group participates in Dadar Beach Clean-up Drive 2023

Mumbai : A beach clean-up programme called “Our Oceans, Our Responsibility” was held today on Dadar beach in Mumbai by leading Mumbai real estate developer Sugee Group and environmental protection organisation Maharashtra Navnirman Paryavaran Sena.

Volunteers and students from schools in Dadar and elsewhere in Mumbai who care about the environment joined forces today to make a difference. The Sugee Group staff and partners took part in the beach clean-up as a community service initiative.

Since 2016, The Sugee Group has sponsored the Maharashtra Navnirman Paryavaran Sena’s annual beach clean-up events. Mr. Jay Shringarpure, an avid ocean supporter and environmentalist, founded the Maharashtra Navnirman Paryavaran Sena to raise awareness about the need for ocean cleanup and to instruct young people in sustainable practises.

Mr. Nishant Deshmukh, the company’s founder and managing director, has said, “We are once again happy to be a part of Dadar Beach Clean – Up initiative. As a leading real estate developer, we strongly advocate the importance of clean and green environment in the vicinity for a sustainable living. Every element of urban infrastructure, including the oceans and water bodies, needs to be well protected from an environmental perspective.”

Mr. Shringarpure, who has made it his mission to clean up beaches as part of his efforts to protect the ocean, said, “This is the sixth successful year of our beach clean – up drive and every year, the participation from environment conscious people is just increasing, which is a good sign. The oceans and beaches are irreplaceable and hence, we must save them. We are happy to have environment – sensitive partners like Sugee Developers, which has strengthened our resolve to promote beach cleanliness.”

He elaborated, saying, “We want to inculcate the sense of responsibility amongst youngsters, who are the future of tomorrow and for whom this coastal environment needs to be well-preserved, by holding beach clean – ups,” which he believes will help reduce the harm that marine debris and plastic pollution cause.

Till date, more than 10,0000 Plus volunteers have participated in this campaign and helped remove more than 9,000 tonnes of plastic and other garbage from 450+ beaches cleaned-up. On 11th December, 2021, Maharashtra Navnirman Paryavaran Sena in support from Sugee Group have created a history by undertaking the biggest beach cleaning campaign that was recognised by the Limca Book of Records. Maharashtra Navnirman Paryavaran Sena has been undertaking campaigns and initiatives like beach clean-ups, plastic collection, green smiles – a walk for oceans, etc.
