Letter on clean India campaign

# A clean India would be the best tribute India could pay to Mahatma Gandhi on his 150 birth anniversary in 2019,”
said Shri Narendra Modi as he launched the Swachh Bharat Mission at Rajpath in New Delhi.
It was launched On 2nd October 2014, Swachh Bharat Mission was launched throughout the country as a national movement.

While leading the mass movement for cleanliness, 
the Prime Minister exhorted people to fulfil Mahatma Gandhi’s dream of a clean and hygienic India. 
Shri Narendra Modi himself initiated the cleanliness drive at Mandir Marg Police Station.

Swachh Bharat Abhiyan a mass movement across the nation, the Prime Minister said people should neither litter, nor let others litter.

He gave the mantra of ‘Na gandagi karenge, Na karne denge.’ 

By inviting people to participate in the drive, the Swachhta Abhiyan has turned into a National Movement. 
A sense of responsibility has been evoked among the people through the Clean India Movement. With citizens now becoming active participants in cleanliness activities across the nation, the dream of a ‘Clean India’ once seen by Mahatma Gandhi has begun to get a shape.

Hope this was helpful to you.

Dear Editor:

I am a great supporter of Clean India Campaign, but seeing the various on-going efforts, I feel there is need of basic change in approach, to achieve real results.

The only benefits of all this campaign is to arouse awareness, which is good and necessary, but the need is to clean the streets, lanes, pavements, public places, offices, which all is to be done by the conservancy staff. When we were small children in 1950s, all this would be cleaned before the sunrise, but now the cleaning goes on till 9 or even 10.

This is to be effectively enforced. People will clean their homes, but there is need of collection of garbage at select points and its scientific disposal till the end. It is common to see it lying scattered, and cows and buffaloes nearby ( and we drink their milk!). There is a dire need of clean and usable public toilets, in rural and urban areas, specially near public usages.We can learn either from history, or the systems abroad.

I saw today NDTV's Cleanathon campaign, I welcome it, but what's the point of doing all this in English? It should be done in Hindi and regional languages, and also on DD with its terrestrial reach. Let's avoid the photo-op's and glamorising a serious national effort.
