Members of the Mizo Chelsea Supporters Club (MCSC) hit the streets of Aizawl in large numbers to make the city plastic-free.

Around 71 members of MCSC, along with officials of Aizawl Municipal Corporation (AMC), on Tuesday morning, came out on the streets to clean the roads and make Aizawl plastic-free.

“We as a football fan and especially die-hard fans of Chelsea FC, time to time we carry out social activities,” the Outlook reported quoting MCSC honorary secretary Jonathan Lalremruata.

“Today, for over an hour, our members walked around the city picking up plastic trash and holding up banner to campaign for ‘No Single-Use Plastic’ as strongly advocated by our government enforced by the AMC,” Lalremruata further added.

“The AMC has propagated the ban of single-use plastics and we hope our small gesture will create larger awareness amongst the general public starting with our 2800 members,” Lalremruata added.
