This is basically what we should call as "SWACHYA BHARAT ABHIYAN"..... silent workers...nature's lover....
no photo-Ops....
We will have to see how much they get from gov bcz gov gives big big contracts to builders which gulfs the amount
The objective of Swatch Bharat Abhiyan was to make India open defecation free *Doctor* Ji.
@@cataclysmal5315 To eradicate the system of open defecation in India was *one of the objective* of Swachh Bharat mission.
@@IMRANAZAM92 true
What about the fishes who feed on those degradable flowers? ....
"Be the change you want to see."
Yes
Every temple in India must make flower Cycling compulsory
Pulkit Kogta not only temple every place should make it mandatory
Every religious place actually can do that and donate that manure to farmers at low prices
Democracy mein compulsion nahi hotee, initiatives hote hain.
Why isn't this famous? Why are they never discussed in the media?
Because the so called 'media' is only interested in 'sansani'!
In real sense " the media" is just polluting our minds with biased news. These are kind of videos I love watching rather than some bullshits.
Ghoos khor media
Because, Indian Media is just busy in Hindu-Islam debate. 😊😊😊
Kyuki media ko fake heros ar kache bnyan bechne se fursat ni hai.
My india is changing slowly but steadily 😍
Till when would someone go along with the malpractices for the multitude?
There are few less who take out tge solution of the prblm, rather than pointing out the prblm, salute to them by heart!!!!!
Real heroes
Today I realized money is not the only thing in world .
The smile in their face and initiatives to protect our environment
Incredible .
Born in kanpur in a Dalit family.
I really feel good when I see guys like you are helping those unprivileged people who don't get any respect from the society.
Thanks 😊😊 😊😊😊
❤❤
That's why HelpUsGreen got a UN young leaders award for this initiative....👏
1. Saving the Ganga
2. Employing the needy
3. Creating eco friendly products
While respecting the religion (which is a tough task to do)
Now this is what we need today!!
@SS Hinduism is all about respecting nature. The dismantled customs have however changed the orientation.
If we worship Ganga , we must also know how to respect her. You don't pile up flowers on your mother , to let her suffocating , just because she is the mother.
Yes, there are also sources of pollution and major ones. But, that doesn't mean you shouldn't do what you can. Even tiny bit of work in right direction is useful when it comes to pollution .
@SS agarbattis didn't even exist thousand years ago.
But, clearly you are biased in your opinion . I would like to restrain from arguing.
@SS The incense being used nowadays contain artificial resins . Fumes of these resins are the maleficent. In ancient times they used natural raw materials only. Wake up , because it is the right time. Otherwise there will be no humans (including Hindus) to follow Hinduism. I'll rest my point here.
@SS I got your point and I totally disagree with it. I am a proud Hindu and I don't feel like everyone is against my religion. I know lot of people do feel the same way and clearly you're one of them.
My Hinduism has taught me to respect mother nature first , and then humanity.
All these customs are secondary. If you'll have an in depth knowledge of your religion, you'll know how these shallow customs destroyed the very essence of our great religion. We need to move back to the ancient Hinduism.
Please stop feeling so vulnerable and stop spreading these views to make others feel the same way too.
@@aakansha353 feel proud !!! You took your stand with facts and logics, rare to see these days .. cheers !!
Thanks for inspiring a fellow CZcamsr, scroll
Thanks so much for bringing this kind of video to you guys 👍👍. Secondly start-up of kanpur team, thanks for making such an important startup, waste to invest 🌍 you people are inspiration not to your know one but entire country.For me most important aspect I can see here in this startup is you guys have inducted marginal people for the work thats highly rated 👍 good job guys 👍 keep it up😎
If the Owner is Listening.
A Big Thankyou. And Please Keeping Doing more n More..
God Bless
I have bought their product it rocks from product quality to amazing packaging. This is true make in India.... Mere Bharatiya Mahan.
These are the Stories that we really need to know about
As a kanpurian, I felt proud. This was one of the biggest challenge Ganga was facing in the city. Hats off to you guys. :-)
ok but how about all the companies that dump their CHEMICAL waste directly into the ganga?
Companies like ITC Ltd, Patanjali manufacture incense sticks...Why can't they procure from these startup and market incense sticks
because they want to make big buck selling shredded jeans 🤣🤣
. Coz chemical free products are relatively expensive & buyers are not many. If people stop counting a few rupees difference & think in terms of the impact their few extra rupees is making to the environment & the income generation of marginalized people -- then there will be more sellers of such products & change will be far more visible
I am from Malaysia and when I listen to such programs it is so inspiring to know that there are so many good youths in India who are willing to come forward to solve such problems and in the process giving much needed employment to so many. Kudos to you both. One request this could be extended to other places especially the south where the raw material could be found. Keep up the good work.
this is kind of worship these guyz r doing.Worship not only means praying it also means doing deeds which make ur society pride.
Wat u said is absolutely trueee...
Most people just complain and talk, and very few great people like Karan & Ankit work silently to bring a change. Hats off 🙏
A startup that matters for the greater good. Thanks to scroll in for bringing in content that matters.
I don't know why, but I've totally been addicted to Scroll.in videos, be it eco India documentaries or the Morning Fix news. You are awesome guys, please don't turn out like Quint, which I thought to be a good neutral source but has started to show its real color by publishing highly biased and selective news coverage of late! I really wish you continue doing this great unbiased, neutral and pure journalism.
Scroll and neutral ,wow man.
Fully agreed..same thing I was going to comment
Did an idiot bhakt actually call Quint sold out. Then what is chee news and Public Toilet news😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
So true, I also first thought Quint to be non biased bring true stories, but they are just the other side of spectrum, I have now unsubscribed Quint, I like this channel for showing this kind of stories.
Small idea makes big difference in society 👏🏻👏🏻
Asif
Exactly
Ak achi Niyaat kitni zaruri hae... Dharam ke naam par jaha India mae itna dirt falaya jata hae.. wahi aap logo nae kamal kar diya..
Cleaner environment, Saving ganga, employing ppls, Very good work, the real gentlemen... Respect..
Instead of bogus recommendation video's such video's are happily welcomed......
For us basic need is food,cloth & shelter but for them self respect..amazing line😍
These guys were in the Forbes 30 under 30 this year. Amazing.
7:42 The smile on her face. ♥
Truely and immense respect for your START UP.
"We have same water. We all are same". That hits the spot. Amazing
We need more people like this in India!
I am so proud of them. At least someone has taken the initiative to clean ganga in Kanpur. I wish they get success in this. Keep working.
That refrigerator thing .... I could feel it..♥️
I came across this startup some years ago, when they were making compost from flower waste. Thankful to scroll for covering them. If possible, I'd like to reach out to team and possibly join them. Thanks!
New idea..new invention..new start..clean river..more employment...more respect...new waste management!!
This is what happens whn one believes in "change" and starts by their own without waiting for others to do!!
❤
I feel immense sense of pride and respect for these two gentlemen for starting this venture. This humble initiative is not only helping the river Ganges to stay clean but is also providing a good and respectable source of employment to the ones in need. Hope that this startup receives more success and support. Kudos!
Simply outstanding and the best part was that these young guys don't feel higher than the workers. They talk with them, laugh with them.
Boys you are legends
Scroll.in you have done really applause able task....and thanks to this guys to whom go actual credit of cleaning India . #hatsoff to your feat.
"Once we're having same water, we all are equal." well said man!
when he said " for us the basic needs are food clothing and shelter and for them its self respect " this really hits me hard
real hero with real education---- recalling the song --- bachchon tum takdeer ho kal ke hindustaan ki----- god bless you and likes of you
Wow never realised "Once we have the same water we are all equal again".
Not only helping in conservation of environment, but also providing better job opportunities to the society.
Well done guys!!🙏
The drone footage was chilling
Marvelous Effort -- Not only they are helping to bring an Eco-friendly environment but have also produced new jobs in the town helping local people
You are not only change, providing solution much needed.. but turned faces to smile. Respect and genuine inspiration for others!
Salute to these gentle guys for a class initiate .. Not only they are cleaning the Mother Ganges, they too are removing discrepancy among the humans.. After all we are Indians firstly and lastly....
"Be the change you want to see". These guys are the perfect example
It was so emotional achievement, I wonder if not CZcams how do I get this kind of news , where people are still here to serve the society going beyond the tradition.
This is an equalizer at so many levels! Mission Incredible! 🙏
Everything about this video is absolutely amazing!! Thanks for bringing up this kind of Transformation!!!
India needs people like you, keep it up proud of you 🙏
Amazing Idea.. Collecting waste flowers from the temple and selling incense sticks to the public visiting temple..Thanks scroll.in for covering this
superheroes are self-made and this person is a live example. hats off to you guys.
A hearty appreciations to the Help Us Clean initiative at Kanpur for their wonderful work at cleansing ganga, recycling flower waste into a eco-friendly commodity and for empowering women. Thanks to Scroll and the entire EcoIndia videos production team for its efforts towards showing the different facets of eco-friendly India.
Superb work from the wasted flowers, saving environment, giving employment, saving ganga.... Wonderful
WOW 😱.
They are the true crusaders of change. I bow down to their ingenuity and perseverance.
Wish them countless blessings.
🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
This is seriously so good !
Bhagwaan in Saab logon ki saari khwaishe Puri kare.
Watching the younger generation thinking outside the box makes me feel proud to be an Indian.
Not only is this benefitting the environment... but it actually is improving the socio-economic conditions of a city!!!!!
What a great job. Giving employment to 79 people changing lives and contributing to keeping river clean.
For govt. Swachh Bharat is just a slogan. They don't care. Real heroes are these people who do the actual job on the ground.
This is something we call a true startup... Hats off to you guys .. thanks a lot for the efforts
Sir this is really a great work... Both of you are great... I am Paarth Manish from Kota (Raj.) which is situated on the banks of holy river Chambal (Maa Charmanyawati)... Sir this also the problem of Chambal too and many other rivers of our Motherland Bharat... Please create this type of work in Kota too which will help in cleaning Chambal and emplying youth.
Govt should support these kind of startups more to encourage youth
I'm very thankful to you
To show this kind of innovation across india in your channel
I salute you
My Bharat needs more Ankits and Karans like this.
Jai Hind
Jai Bharat.
There is a positive change in environmental status of "River Ganga"
Also the positive change in social and economic status of the women evolved.
Very truly said in the video.... The basic necessities of these people is Self respect ,that's being achieve too!!! My best wishes to you all.
My hearty congratulations to you and your team. most brilliant idea. This should be implemented all over the country.
Not just problems, but solutions and initiatives by the very people of this country educated or uneducated. Scroll.in, your initiative of eco series is an amazing act of increasing sensitivity and inspiring people to improve the environment
This is amazing. From a casual idea to such life changing innovation its really worth appreciating. It should be made compulsory to every temple in india.
I feel so proud to see these people. Would love to be a part of something like this
God bless the duo. Great work. Stop pollution of Ganga, reuse waste and generate employment for the most needy.
Thank you...I am amused that this inspiring video is liked only by a few hundred more than a thousand. I expected the count to be in millions.
I am in tears.. Tears of absolute joy and hope..
This is probably the most inspiring story I have seen in years.. Because to start something new in such an orthodox society as Kanpur and UP as a whole is a mammoth challenge in itself..
I feel hope now.. Thank you so much Sroll to bring us such story.. And thank you so much Help us Green for doing this incredible work.. You are the role models.. You are the Heros..!!
Great job. Keeping the tradition as well as saving the environment and giving job to the youth. Win win all the way.
