Mathura, Jan 14 (PTI) Mathura Refinery has presented cleaning devices to the Mathura Vrindavan Development Authority (MVDA) as part of its corporate social responsibility, for ensuring the cleanliness in three pilgrim centres here, Mathura MP Hema Malini said on Thursday.

Mathura Refinery since inception has not only been doing something for the upliftment of people but also contributed its best for maintaining cleanliness in the most-visited area of Brijbhumi, said Arvind Kumar, executive director and chief of Mathura Refinery.

Expressing his gratitude for Malini, Kumar said she has been a guiding source for the refinery to adopt welfare measures, including maintaining an eco-friendly environment by massive plantations in Mathura and Agra.
