Addressing on the occasion, Dr Jitendra Singh said that this fortnight, ‘Swachhta Hi Sewa’ campaign is being organised by the Government. He said that soon after the formation of Government, the Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi had emphasised on the importance of imbibing cleanliness in our daily life. The emphasis was laid on constructing toilets, specially for women, he said. Dr Jitendra Singh said that in the first year itself, 4 lakh toilets were constructed. The Minister said that this is an occasion to rededicate ourselves to the cause of cleanliness. He said that cleanliness should not be restricted only to the fortnight, but become a part of our daily habit.

Under ‘Swachhta Hi Sewa’ campaign, the Ministry of DoNER is organising a cleanliness drive in the rooms and the office premises. After the inspection of the premises, the awards for ‘Swachhta’ will be given by the Ministry.
