NEW DELHI: Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Wednesday celebrated the Swachh Bharat Mission (SBM) as the largest and most successful people's movement of the 21st century, underlining its transformative impact on public health, wellbeing, and social attitudes across India. Speaking at an event commemorating 10 years of the mission, the prime minister highlighted the power of mass participation in driving India's journey toward a cleaner and healthier future.
“You all made the Swachh Bharat Mission a success,” said Modi. He pointed out that over 28 crore people participated in more than 27 lakh events in just 15 days during the 'Sewa Pakhwada' campaign.
Modi said that political leaders, including chief ministers, ministers, and local representatives, played vital roles in advancing this national effort. He emphasised the importance of continuous action, noting that “only continuous efforts can lead to a clean India.”
During the event, the prime minister also inaugurated projects worth around Rs 10,000 crore under the Swachh Bharat and AMRUT 2.0 missions. These projects include critical water and sewage treatment plants across several states. Modi said that these infrastructure projects are pivotal in sustaining the cleanliness campaign and ensuring that its benefits reach future generations.
