Mangaluru: On the 27th of August, 2023, at 7:30 AM on a Sunday, the Bearys Group of Institutions orchestrated a remarkable event – the Ullal Beach Clean Up Day – right in our city. Their mission is to nurture tomorrow's leaders with an innovative perspective on sustainability.
The beacon of this initiative was Dr. S I Manjur Basha, the Principal of BIT, who inaugurated the beach cleaning endeavor.

Their aspiration is to kindle the passion for sustainable architecture and cultivate a consciousness for the environment among young minds, all the while envisioning a world that's both progressive and lush.
The heart of this movement was the collective effort to transform Ullal beach into a pristine haven – cleaner and safer for everyone's delight. At the core of the beach clean-up mission was the cultivation of a profound sense of responsibility towards nature, coupled with an encouragement of good hygiene practices. A spotlight was cast on combatting marine pollution and eradicating the pernicious habit of littering our beaches with refuse and plastic. The ultimate goal is to stem the tide of harm to marine life and preserve the vitality of our oceans.
The participants of this noble undertaking were armed with hand gloves and cleaning bags, ensuring both their safety and the efficiency of their mission. The impact was palpable, with over 300 students taking part and making the Ullal Beach clean-up a triumphant achievement. This event is a resounding reminder that even the most modest actions can create ripples of transformation, ensuring a thriving planet for the generations yet to come.
