In a bid to promote eco-friendly transport, the Confederation of Real Estate Developers’ Association of India (Credai), Odisha Chapter organised a Clyclothon here on Sunday.
Attending as chief guest, Cultural Minister Ashok Panda flagged off the cyclothon and said, “Though these programmes are not going to solve the purpose of eco-friendliness in just a day, but they have very positive impact on the society in terms of spreading awareness.”
Around 250 people cycled covering Capital Hospital Square, Shisu Bhavan Square, Rajmahal Square, Master Canteen square, Ram Mandir square and returned to the Neheru Club Ground.
MP Siddhanta Mahapatra and MlA and Credai Property Expo-2016 brand ambassador Akash Das Nayak joined the programme as guests of honor. The MlA said cycling not only solves the purpose of eco-friendly transportation but also it has a very positive effect on our health. At least the youth mass should come forward and make it a habit for the betterment of their physical as well as psychological health.
Among others, Ollywood actor Samaresh Routray, Credai, Odisha Chapter president Dilip Patra, general secretary Sangram Kesari Sahoo and vice-president Swadesh Routray were present, among others.
