Swach Bharat Abhiyaan
Swach Bharat Abhiyaan is a clean India movement. This campaign was launched by Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi on the 2nd of October 2014 at Rajghat, in New Delhi, with an aim to make India clean, healthy and beautiful.
Swach Ganga Abhiyaan
The government launched the Swach Ganga Abhiyaan program on the 30th of January 2016. The Ganga campaign was started to clean and protect the Ganga river from dirt and pollution.
The river Ganga is the cultural and spiritual identity of our country. Ganga is the oldest and the national river, also known as the lifeline of our country. This river is associated with belief, trust, religious and spiritual sentiments.
Sadly, in the holy Ganga river, people pollute the water by throwing wastages, ashes, taking baths, and washing their clothes.
The river Ganga is holy, and we should save the river from dirt and pollution. Hence, it is our responsibility to maintain its cleanliness and preserve its purity.
