Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Sunday pitched for blending fitness and well-being with cleanliness as he led a nationwide ‘Swachhata hi Seva’ campaign that saw thousands participate in an hour-long “shramdaan” across the country.
Wielding a broom, the prime minister took part in the drive along with fitness influencer Ankit Baiyanpuriya.
Sharing a four-minute video on his official ‘X’ account, Modi said, “Today, as the nation focuses on Swachhata, Ankit Baiyanpuriya and I did the same! Beyond just cleanliness, we blended fitness and well-being also into the mix. It is all about that Swachh and Swasth Bharat vibe!” People from all walks of life, from politicians to students, took up brooms and participated in the campaign in response to the prime minister’s appeal for the cleanliness drive.
