‘Swachh Bharat Abhiyan’ or ‘Clean India Mission’ is an initiative led by the Government of India to make India a clean India. This campaign was launched officially by the Government of India on 145th birth anniversary of the great person, Mahatma Gandhi on 2nd of October, 2014. It was launched at the Rajghat, New Delhi (the cremation ground of Mahatma Gandhi). The Government of India has aimed to make India a clean India by 2nd of October 2019 (means 150th birth anniversary of the Mahatma Gandhi) through this campaign.
It is a politics free campaign inspired by patriotism. It is launched as a responsibility of each and every Indian citizen to make this country a Swachh country. This campaign has initiated people globally towards cleanliness. Teachers and students of schools are joining this ‘Clean India Campaign’ very actively with great fervour and joy. Under this campaign, another cleanliness initiative has been started by UP CM, Yogi Adityanath in March 2017. He has banned chewing paan, gutka and other tobacco products in the government offices all over UP.
Swachh Bharat Abhiyan is a campaign launched by the Prime Minister, Narendra Modi as a nationwide cleanliness campaign. It is implemented to fulfill the vision and mission of clean India one day. It was launched especially on the birth anniversary of the Mahatma Gandhi as he always dreamed and was very keen to make this country a clean country. He had tried for clean India during his time by motivating people through his campaigns and slogans however it was only partially successful because of the limited involvement of the people of India.
But after so many years, Swachh Bharat Mission was again started by the Government of India to make the dream of clean India come true till 150th birth anniversary of the Mahatma Gandhi. It was started in 2014 on 2nd of October on the 145th birth anniversary of Mahatma Gandhi. It is a big challenge for all the citizens of India. It is only possible if each and every person living in India would understand this campaign, their own responsibility and try to join hands together to make it a successful mission.
The mission is promoted by the many famous Indian personalities to spread this mission as an awareness programme throughout the country. In order to ensure cleanliness, UP CM, Yogi Adityanath, has banned chewing of paan, gutka and other tobacco products in the government offices across the state, since March 2017.
