In observance of World Environment Day, the Indira Gandhi Sports Academy, Kohima joined hands with the Department of Youth Resources and Sports to take a stand against plastic pollution. The Academy observed the global occasion by organizing a cleanliness drive around the Stadium premises on 5th June 2025.

Students, coaches, and departmental officers participated in the initiative, which aligned with this year’s World Environment Day theme — “Ending Plastic Pollution.” Participants collected plastic waste and other trash from in and around the Stadium, promoting awareness about responsible waste disposal and the urgent need to reduce single-use plastics.
