On 2nd October, 2019, it would be Mahatma Gandhi’s 150th Birth Anniversary and keeping the significance of the said date and the landmark, the Hon’ble Prime Minister of India, Shri. Narendra Modi had initiated the Swachh Bharat Mission on 2nd October, 2014. The Mission was to make India clean by 2nd October, 2019. Since 2nd October, 2014, the Government had invested a lot of energy and resources to achieve this mission. A nation is not built by its Government but by its people.
