The channel carried out a campaign called as “Mission 72” wherein they requested the citizens of Raipur on the occasion of Independence Day as to which evil of the society would they like to eradicate.
Thousands of citizens chose to wipe out garbage & dirt and get in hygiene and cleanliness to the city. The entire city comprising of students, youngsters, senior citizens chose this & informed the channel via calls, messages and live voting in the studio.

There was a condition on which he would come out, that is if Raipur would pledge to not throw garbage in the city. A rally with cars and bikes took place from MY FM’s office. The rally went on to Rajbandhi Maidan to Kanal Road reaching Marine Drive till MY FM’s office. RDA Chairman Sanjay Shrivastav flagged off the rally.
