Chandigarh's famous Rose Garden received extraordinary free help on the morning of Sunday, November 10, 2013, when a team of volunteers from the local Ahmadiyya Muslim community showed up to clean the park.

A tradition of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community, the effort is affectionately known as 'Waqar-e Amal' [dignity in work].

The Waqar-e Amal clean up organized by the community's youth wing, Majlis Khuddamul Ahmadiyya (Ahmadiyya Muslim Youth Association), began in the early morning, promptly after the Fajr salat and lasted for several hours.

Local citizens of Chandigarh going for their morning walk in the garden were very much impressed and appreciated the youths' effort.

Organizers say general public appreciated the fact that there are some youths from a particular community who are practically trying to do humanitarian works in Chandigarh.

"If youth everywhere start doing this, then the country will be prosperous one," one passerby observed.

Some members of public present at the park also joined in to help with the Waqar-e Amal effort.

Even some Indonesian tourists who were vising the Park joined in applauding the Ahmadi youths' effort.
