Answer:Prime Minister Narendra Modi launched his nationwide cleanliness campaign, the `Swachha Bharat Abhiyan’ or ‘Clean India Campaign’ from the Valmiki Bastion 2nd October 2014. Addressing the nation at the launch, Modi asked 1.25 billion people to join the Swachha Bharat Abhiyan’ and promote it to everyone. Modi himself swept a pavement at Valmiki Basti, a colony of sanitary workers. Launching the campaign, Modi reminded the people that cleanliness is not only the responsibility of the Safari Kamgars’ but also the responsibility of 1.25 billion Indians. The Prime Minister assured the nation that `Swachha Bharat Abhiyan’ is beyond politics.

The Prime Minister also started a social media campaign. He invited nine people to join the campaign and they would invite another nine people. He invited master blaster Sachin Tendulkar, Bollywood stars Aamir Khan, Priyanka Chopra, Salman Khan, Yoga Guru Baba Ramdev and industrialists like the Ambanis. The Prime Minister showed his deep concern at mothers and daughters going in the open to relieve themselves. More than 60% of people in India defecate in the open. Constructing toilets in schools and villages, particularly for girls and women, would be the top priority for the government. The Prime Minister also pledged to people saying, “I would not litter and won’t allow anyone to do so”
