Mysuru: Sadhguru Jaggi Vasudev, Founder of Coimbatore-based Isha Foundation and spiritual leader, has given a call for saving our rivers with the campaign ‘Rally for Rivers’ where he himself will be driving across from Kanyakumari to the Himalayas. The rally was kicked off on Sept. 3 in Coimbatore and will conclude on Oct. 2 after covering 16 States and 7,000 kilometres.
The initiative was flagged off in the presence of eminent people like Union Environment, Forest and Climate Change Minister Harsh Vardhan Singh, cricketers Virender Sehwag, Mithali Raj and car racer Narain Karthikeyan. The initiative comes at a time when rivers of the country are going dry and many cities are facing water shortage problems. The rally has led to a splash of blue on everyone’s social media timeline.
