A non-government body Commission Serving Kabul Citizens called upon Kabul residents on Wednesday to collectively sweep up the garbage and keep the war-torn Afghan capital clean.
The date to make the city clean collectively has been set on July 25 and in accordance with the program, all the residents of Kabul and government employee with the support of government bodies would come out from their houses and clean up all garbage and wasted items from each corners and streets.
“I am calling on all residents of Kabul to attend the collective work for the cleaning of Kabul on Friday (July 25) and promote the culture of beauty and cleansing,” head of the commission Habibrahman Habib told newsmen at a press conference attended by several ministers and UN officials.
Habib said that thousands of people from all walks of life would participate the collective work from 06:00 a.m. to 06:00 p.m. local time.
With nearly 5 million populations the war-torn Kabul is one of the most polluted capitals of the world as according to officials of the Environment Directorate, around 400,000 tons of wasted items and garbage produced annually in this war-ravaged city.
Battered streets, using more than 300,000 second hand cars, poor civic amenities and utilizing generators by house owners to light their homes have further contributed to polluting the environment in Afghan capital.

They should have the clean up on monthly basis and those not participating should be fined! The capital is disgusting and the gov cannot do it by it self. Kabul residents need to participate.
