Question

essay on swach bharat abhiyaan

Answer 1

Though it not the first time that Indian government tried to launch the Clean India campaign. In 1999, the government of India launched the “Total Sanitation Campaign” which was later renamed as “Nirmal Bharat Abhiyan” by then prime minister Manmohan Singh. But, his time under the label of “Swachh Bharat Abhiyan” PM Modi made it a national priority. It was an unexpected move, no one could have imagined a prime minister of world biggest democracy will give that much importance to cleanliness. We, Indians kind of used to being a dirty country. We see it everywhere but we ignore. We blame the government, system for unavailability of infrastructure. PM Modi made it a national level campaign and urged the fellow citizens to take part. He himself took the broom in hand cleaned the road. Some may see it as a marketing or political stunt, but what it did was it made us think about cleanlines
