gd over clean india green india as a green intiative
Answers
Prime Minister Modi has laid a lot of emphasis on cleanliness. In this direction, he launched the Swachh Bharat Abhiyan. This movement envisages a clean India through participation of every Indian. A lot of suspicion prevails over the success of this campaign, as many are arguing that until the attitude and mentality of people changes no campaign can clean India. So, should government have launched a mass awareness mission to change the mentality prior to Swach Bharat Abhiyan?
YES BECAUSE: -There will be no expected participation unless people’s attitude towards cleanliness and its importance changes.
- Indians generally cares very less about hygiene. Most of them even spit where ever they want, as they are unaware of the health implications. Their habit will not change unless they are aware.
NO BECAUSE: -Launching this mission with active participation of PM, ministers and officials itself motivates citizens to participate.
-The mission highlights the importance of cleanliness very well and making them aware is an integral part for this mission.
Conclusion:
Making people aware is important, but more important is that this awareness is converted to actions. As government itself has taken the initiative, this will definitely motivate people and make them realize that cleanliness is not just government’s responsibility. On its part government can introduce a separate awareness drive too, so that more and more people join this campaign. Ultimately, these efforts will not only force people to change their attitude of “nothing will change” but also ensures their participation too.
