Plog Run | Taking Steps Towards a Cleaner Bengaluru

What if every step we took towards fitness could also make our surroundings cleaner? Bringing this thought to life, Rotaract Bangalore East, in collaboration with Rotaract Club of Andheri, RI District 3141, and Youth for Seva, organised Plog Run on 26th September 2026 across Mini Forest, Rajguru Park, Sukhdev Park, Bhagat Singh Park and the surrounding areas of JP Nagar, Bengaluru.

Combining physical activity with a meaningful clean-up drive, the initiative brought together around 60 enthusiastic volunteers who actively participated in collecting litter from the designated parks and surrounding areas.

Beyond cleaning up public spaces, the activity encouraged participants to take responsibility for their surroundings and recognise how individual efforts, when brought together, can create a significant difference. The initiative also promoted teamwork, active citizenship, environmental awareness and community participation.

Plog Run was a reminder that keeping our city clean is a shared responsibility, and every small effort counts towards building a healthier environment.

Run for fitness, plog for the planet!
