She also commended the initiative to keep the city safe and clean.
While pointing out the Government's mooting to organise Hornbill festival later this year depending upon the Covid-19 situation, she urged the citizens of Kohima to maintain and keep that city beautiful as it would not only beautify the city but give a positive impression to visitors when they come.
She further appealed to the citizens to make it their habit in households and wherever they go to adopt and resolve to keep the city clean.
In a short address, the person behind the KOCC mission, Khriehuzo Lohe, said that 'Keep our city clean' was initiated in 2020 and had been undertaking cleanliness drives across the city in various locations. He added that the car sticker aims to convey the message of keeping the city clean and urged the people and car owners to carry forward the message.
