Mission Green Mumbai, whose name is self-explanatory, an organisation that is dedicated to the protection of green spaces and adding green to the city, has taken the Assam cause underneath its umbrella.

The environmental outfit’s founder Subhajit Mukherjee said, “Though we are a Mumbai-centric organisation, humanity does not and should not be limited to borders. We are extending our help to the Northeast. We have started a sari collection drive for the people of the Assam flood-affected region. Our fellow citizens have nothing to wear, so I am requesting people to donate plain saris, not the heavily embellished ones, to our office at Charkop in Kandivli. We will send these to a district called Nagaon in Assam.” Nagaon is one of the worst-hit districts by the calamity in the state.
