Creating a clean India

Prime Minster Modiji chaired a meeting on 11th September on Mission Swacch Bharat with AIMS.

I urge him to make Swacch Bharat a mass movement and link it to economic activity.

Mission Swacch Bharat is to be launched on October 2nd with an aim to create a clean India of Gandhiji's dream.

Let every citizen pledge to contribute 100 hours a year towards cleanliness. Government offices to Punchayat can conduct cleanliness drive till Diwali.

It is an excellent step towards the right direction, but it will be even better if the leaders of the country also take brooms in their hands and contribute 2 hours every Sunday to sweep the streets and set examples for all the citizens.

If this happens, media will play their part to show the whole world what Modiji is trying to do in India. And I am sure the whole country will join him. I remember when Shastriji proposed the same, the whole nation followed it.

Now is the time for Modiji to show us cleaning is actually next to Godliness. If I am needed, I will also join the movement.
