This man gives his blood and sweat to keep Dandi beach clean

Surat: From all the beaches in south Gujarat, you will find the one at the historic village of Dandi in Navsari to be most cleanest, beautiful and peaceful. This thanks to the efforts of a man in his 40s, clad in Khadi shirt, who has been on a clean-up mission for the past four years now.
Kalu Dangar, a social scientist, leaves his house at Vinay Mandir School hostel at 6:30 am with a giant waste collection bag in his hand.
He covers an area of three square kilometre on Dandi sea front and picks up the litter thrown by the visitors.
After two hours of rigorous cleaning exercise on the beach in the morning, he arrives at Dandi chowpaty to clean the main entrance and garden, and then fills up the 2,000 litre overhead water tank for the visitors.
"I always ask the visitors to throw the litter in the dustbin. They do not follow my plea, and throw the litter on beach," says Dangar, who collects Rs 100 each from the shop owners on Dandi beach in a month to take up welfare activities.
