The cleanliness campaign would be taken up ahead of the Manipur Sangai Festival as a joint venture of Tourism Department and Imphal Municipal Corporation (IMC) .
All the banners and posters of the festival would be made of either cotton or paper.
Plastics and polythenes would be strictly prohibited at Hapta Kangjeibung, the main venue of the festival so as to make the festival eco-friendly, informed an official source.
