Advantages And Disadvantages Of Swach Bharat Abhiyan
There is a famous saying, ‘Cleanliness is next to godliness’.
Swachh Bharat Abhiayan is cleanliness drive launched by Honorable Prime
Minister, Narender Modi. India, our beloved motherland is in the direst need of
cleanliness. The general state of our cities, towns, colonies, rivers, oceans, lakes,
hill-stations, parks, gardens, public transportation systems, railway stations,
public toilets, etc, all indicate we as a nation are not pro-cleanliness! The
nationwide ‘Swachch Bharat Abhiyan’ is another proof of our vice of apathy to
the squalor lying uncleaned around us!
There is no disadvantage of Swachh Bharat Abhiyan. However,
the advantages are many. Let’s ponder over the innumerable advantages of this
campaign (abhiyan). According to Addison, cleanliness is a mark of politeness,
as it produces affection, and as it bears analogy to purity of mind. It makes
us agreeable to others. It is an excellent preservative of health; and several vices,
destructive both to body and mind, are inconsistent with it. Cleanliness and
national development go hand in hand. Cleanliness is the hallmark of national
development. The more a nation is developed, the more it is clean. Have you
ever seen an advanced country that is not clean? You won’t find these two
things coexisting! Cleanliness is a state that is reached after lots of
planning and creating the required infrastructure.
Take for instance the most advanced European countries such
as UK, France, Germany, Switzerland, Sweden, Holland, etc; you will find they
are known among the people of the world and national prosperity. Quite contrary
to these advanced countries now take into consideration the state of developing
courtiers of Asia, Africa, and Latin America. One won’t find these countries
much clean. Why is this stark difference? The difference is in the mentality
and attitude of people.
People living in the advanced countries in Europe, America,
Canada, New Zealand, Australia, etc. give quite a high priority to cleanliness.
Besides, being clean is the normal in these countries. These countries have
become quite advanced in waste management infrastructure. Hence they are very
clean and appealing too.
Cleanliness is considered as one of the most agreeable
qualities. No wonder these countries are so much sought after. As a benefit of
being clean these countries are centre of attraction for the affluent people of
the world. Almost every progressive company, organization, and individual just
wants to head for these countries for business or leisure, which gives rise to
so many of economic activities.
These clean countries earn billions of dollars from tourism
only. All the educated and highly skilled people prefer immigrating to these
countries, which further adds to the growth and development of these countries.
As a contrast the less clean countries lose all these benefits. So, you see how
essential cleanliness is for national development!
Cleanliness also engenders excellent health as cleanliness
implies absence of litter, stink, garbage, staleness which are breeding grounds
of bacteria and other disease vectors. Cleanliness means enough beautification
of surroundings through trees and plants which actually are oxygen and clean
air generators. Thus cleanliness ensures enough health conducive environment.
Cleanliness is not just one man’s or organization’s
responsibility. The entire nation will have to work for it. The Government
along with the people’s cooperation must make maintaining national cleanliness
the top most priority only then we can reap the benefits of being a clean
country.
Once Swachh Bharat Abhiyan becomes successful, our nation
will also reap the benefits as discussed in the aforementioned paragraphs.
