Additionally, the team conducted an intensive drive along the BC Road to clear footpaths and pavements.

After the successful execution of the drive, the Jammu Municipal Corporation strongly appealed to all citizens and commercial entities to co-operate with the Corporation in keeping the city free from encroachments.
