Combining cleaning up the twin hills of Khandagiri and Udayagiri, the famed Jain heritage site with heritage trail through ‘Monks, Caves and Kings’ under the aegis of Ekamra Walks, 65 NCC cadets of the Tapobana High School, Khandagiri took part in the weekly monument walk and carried out plogging activity.
The 95th edition of Monks, Caves and Kings got a rejuvenating pace with the participation of young school students and NCC cadets under the leadership of teacher and NCC Officer Sunita Biswal.
The students with cloth bags collected the trash throughout the cave trail at Khandagiri, while at Udayagiri walks involved storytelling about the twin hills and the importance of the jJain monuments along with collecting litter. A student, Priyanka Soren, said, “With my friends I had so much fun that for a moment I forgot we had an examination today.”
