Sector 17, a bustling residential and commercial zone in Faridabad, had been facing challenges related to waste buildup, clogged drainage systems, and overgrown public green spaces. In response, a dedicated 16-day clean-up and restoration initiative was launched to improve hygiene, accessibility, and environmental conditions in key areas of the sector.
With a rotating workforce of 10–15 individuals per day and a total of 223 man-days, the project strategically targeted critical stretches and high-traffic locations. Activities included street and lane cleaning, pruning of trees, unclogging of drains, and the removal of scattered waste, contributing to a safer and cleaner community environment.

What We Did
Over a span of 16 working days, our team carried out a focused clean-up and restoration operation in key areas of Sector 17, Faridabad. With a rotating workforce of 10–15 individuals per day, we completed 223 man-days of intensive work that included clearing littered streets and internal lanes, pruning overgrown trees and plants to improve visibility and safety, cleaning clogged drainage lines to ensure better water flow, and collecting and disposing of scattered waste. These efforts significantly improved hygiene, reduced potential monsoon-related flooding, and enhanced the overall appearance and usability of public spaces within the sector.
Outcomes
The Sector 17 Clean-Up and Restoration project led to visible and impactful improvements across targeted areas. A total of 223 man-days of labor resulted in cleaner streets, unclogged drainage systems, and well-maintained green spaces, contributing to a healthier and more accessible environment. Tree pruning enhanced visibility and public safety, while the removal of waste and waterlogging issues improved the overall aesthetics and functionality of shared spaces. Though not covering the entire sector, the intervention made a measurable difference in key zones, setting a positive precedent for future maintenance and community-driven initiatives.
