The Municipal Corporation of Gurugram (MCG) on Tuesday appointed cartoonist Shekhar Gurera as its official cartoonist (Brand Ambassador for Cartoons) for Swachh Survekshan 2018, officials said.
The engagement would entail Gurera contributing a series of cartoons around various aspects of cleanliness.
The aim is to sensitise citizens to follow best sanitation practices through the unique medium of cartoons.
Additionally, the cartoons will also appeal to citizens to actively participate in the ongoing "Swachh Survekshan" with their feedback, thus contributing to the city's ranking.
Speaking on the occasion, Anu Sheokand, Joint Commissioner and Nodal officer for the Swachh Bharat Mission in Gurugram, said: "MCG is delighted to have Gurera on-board. Being a distinguished citizen of Gurugram, I appreciate his voluntary support in our efforts to sensitize citizens."
Gurera said: "I am happy to support MCG. Cartoons have a unique way to inspire people and often have a profound impact on the onlookers."
