Essay on Gandagi muktt Bharat in English
Answers
Explanation:
The Department of Drinking Water and Sanitation (DDWS) is organising a week-long behaviour change campaign called ‘Gandagi Mukt Bharat’ (GMB) from 8th to 15th August 2020. As the name implies, the campaign aims to reaffirm commitment towards building a cleaner and healthier future.
States and UTs are expected to actively participate in the programme as they mobilise communities at District, Block and Village levels to engage in cleaning, plantation, promotion of behaviour change, shramdaan and other swachhata related activities.
The highlight of the week-long campaign is the inauguration of the Rashtriya Swachhata Kendra (RSK) on 8th August. A tribute to Mahatma Gandhi, the RSK was first announced by the Hon’ble Prime Minister on 10th April 2017 at the centenary celebrations of Gandhiji’s indigo agitation, the Champaran Satyagraha. The RSK has been established at the Gandhi Smriti and Darshan Samiti at Rajghat in New Delhi – a dynamic experience centre to actively engage with citizens to impart information, awareness, and education around Swachhata in an interactive format with a balanced mix of digital and outdoor installations.
