Can we create an online petition for this? I am tired of calling the cops every year at midnight as inconsiderate citizens continue to burst crackers at ungodly hours. No body seems to understand the harmful side effects of such noise and air pollution. more

God in any of his incarnations, whether, Bhagwan, Allahor Christ or in any other form, is neither deaf nor blind. We only remember him in our minds and he hears it all. Peace and tranquility are his gifts to us , which we have lost on the way. On the occassion of festivals let us resolve the following. We will extend a helping hand to all wth a view to bring a smile on everyones lips. Act with compassion and love for all, man woman and child. Regard all of gods creations as his treasures and prevent any harm. Follow the principle of SARVA DHARMA SAMANATVA. Spread the message of Love and Goodwill. AND PEACE WILL PREVAIL.

On the occasion of Global Handwashing Day and the birth anniversary of former President of India, Dr. APJ Abdul Kalam, Dettol has launched a nationwide initiative, Dettol Banega Swachh India for imparting hygiene education to school children. The initiative was launched from Rameshwaram, the hometown of former President of India. In partnership with NGO Gramalaya, Dettol will reach out to schools and communities through both government and private schools across Rajasthan, Uttar Pradesh, Telangana, Maharashtra, Bihar and Tamil Nadu over a period of 3 years and will educate 2.5 million children in the first year. The initiative will focus on imparting hygiene education to school children, building toilets for communities, renovating primary and middle schools with proper sanitation infrastructure and maintenance of these facilities. Recognising the role children can play in the success of the Swachh Bharat Abhiyaan, Dettol has partnered with the best child education experts at XSEED and Butterfly EduFields to develop a hygiene curriculum for children in primary schools. This curriculum will create hygiene and sanitation awareness amongst children, who in turn can educate their families and communities. The curriculum has been developed in 4 languages â Hindi, English, Tamil and Telugu - and comprises student workbooks, a teachersâ manual and innovative teaching aids.
