Earlier, during the 105th episode of “Mann ki Baat”, Modi had requested that all citizens participate in “one hour of shramdaan for swachhata” on October 1, referring to it as a tribute (“swachhanjali”) to Mahatma Gandhi on the eve of his birth anniversary.
Following the prime minister’s appeal for a nationwide cleanliness drive on October 1, Hardeep Singh Puri, Union housing and oil minister, participated in the “Shramdaan for Cleanliness” programme as part of the “Swachhata Hi Seva” campaign here on Sunday. The minister led the cleanliness drive at Princess Park on Copernicus Marg, New Delhi. Sanitation workers, students, residents of the area along with senior officials from the Union housing ministry joined the drive.
In a post on X, Puri said, “Inspired by Prime Minister Narendra Modi Ji’s call for Swachhata Hi Seva, joined residents of the temporary settlement at Princess Park on Copernicus Marg for one hour of Shramdaan for a Garbage Free India.”
