Over 550 Rotarians and people across age groups took part in Cyclothon 2.0, a mega cycle rally organised by RC Jalandhar Helping Hands, RID 3070, in a joint initiative with 13 other city clubs, sending a message of ‘pedal to save environment and water’.

The cycle rally toured 10km starting from the Model Town and passed through different localities to spread awareness on the need to preserve the environment and save water. Veteran athletes and riders from Jalandhar — Gagan Kumar, Sunil Sharma, Balraj Singh Chouhan and Baljit Mahajan — were honoured at the end of the rally. All
