On the occasion of the car festival at the Chidambaram Nataraja Temple on 2 January 2026, which witnessed the participation of more than five lakh devotees, a large-scale cleanliness drive was organised by Parivaran Sanrakshan.

Amid the heavy footfall and continuous religious activities, Parivaran Sanrakshan undertook a cleanliness initiative aimed at maintaining hygiene in and around the temple town.

More than 500 volunteers participated in the drive, clearing waste from roads, public spaces, and areas surrounding food distribution points. The volunteers focused on proper disposal of waste and general cleanliness to ensure a safer and cleaner environment for devotees during the high-profile religious event.

Organisers said the initiative was intended to complement the spiritual significance of the festival by promoting environmental responsibility and public cleanliness, especially during large congregations where waste generation is high.
