WHY WE NEED A CLEAN INDIA

• I am sure you have heard time and again that cleanliness is next to Godliness. Alas, things are often different when it comes to putting this into practice.

JUST KNOW WHAT IS CIVILISATION

• Civilisation is the distance that man has placed between himself and his own excreta.”

• ― Brian W. Aldiss,

• I wish if you truly understand the word India suffers with many diseases with faecal contamination

WHY SWACHH BHARAT ABHIYAN

Mahatma Gandhi had rightly said, “Sanitation is more important than Independence”. He was aware of the pathetic situation of Indian rural people at that time and he dreamt of a clean India where he emphasised on cleanliness and sanitation as an integral part of living. Unfortunately, we have completed 67 years of independence and we have only about 30% of the rural households with access to toilets.

SWACHH BHARAT ABHIYAN• Swachh Bharat or

Swachh Bharat Abhiyan (Campaign Clean India) is a national level campaign by the Government of India covering 4041 statutory towns to clean the streets, roads and infrastructure of the country.

THE GREAT BEGINNING

• This campaign was officially launched on 2 October 2014 at Rajghat, New Delhi, where Prime Minister Narendra Modi himself wielded broom and cleaned a road. The campaign is India's biggest ever cleanliness drive and 3 million government employees and schools and colleges students of India participated in this event

SWACHH BHARAT ABHIYAN

LAUNCHING • Swachh Bharat Abhiyan

was launched by Prime Minister of India Narendra Modi on 2 Oct 2014, Gandhi Jayanti. On this day, Modi addressed the citizens of India in a public gathering held at Rajpath, India and asked everyone to join this campaign.[6] Later on this day, Modi himself swept a pavement at Valmiki Basti, a colony of sanitation workers, near Rajpath.

CLEAN INDIA A GREAT INDIA

• This campaign aims to accomplish the vision of 'clean India' by 2nd October 2019, 150th birthday of Mahatma Gandhi and is expected to cost over INR62000 crore (US$10 billion). The campaign was described as "beyond politics" and "inspired by patriotism".

• More than 3 million government employees and schools and colleges students of India are going to participate in this event.

OUR PRIME MINISTER VISION TO FUTURE INDIA • I urge every one of you to

devote at least hundred hours every year, that is two hours every week towards cleanliness. We can’t let India remain unclean any longer. On 2nd October I myself will set out with a broom and contribute towards this pious task. Let us walk shoulder to shoulder in our quest to create a Clean India!

WHAT IS MODI ’S OPINION?• Modi has directly linked the Clean India

movement with the economic activity of the nation. This mission, according to him, can contribute to GDP growth, provide a source of employment and reduce health costs, thereby connecting to an economic activity. Cleanliness is no doubt connected to the tourism and global interests of the country as a whole. India is already a known hub in the world tourist map. It is high time now that India’s top 50 tourist destinations display high class levels of hygiene and cleanliness so as to change the nation’s global perception.
