Gandhi Jayanti 2024: Today, on October 2, when the nation marks Gandhi Jayanti, the ‘Swachh Bharat Abhiyan’ is in focus: an initiative by the Central Government for cleanliness and sanitation across India. Headed by PM Narendra Modi, the movement finds its way to social media waves as influencers and other pertinent personalities come under the same roof to promulgate its cause. All these efforts together strive to bring this message of cleanliness to the remotest village of this country.
The Call for Cleanliness
In a country still struggling to get the sanitation issues sorted, Swachh Bharat Mission reminds of Mahatma Gandhi’s dream of a clean India. On this very day, PM Modi paid tributes to Gandhi by urging people to become more proactive in the cleanliness drive. He called for complete participation saying it would make everyone play their role and take India to an even better place.
Influencer Support: Influence at Its Peak
Prominent personalities from other walks of life have also joined the swachh bharat movement and are using their studios for promoting the Swachh Bharat Mission. Bollywood actress Alia Bhatt meted out an emotional appeal upon citizens to unite under PM Modi’s leadership to realize Gandhi’s dream of a clean and self-reliant India. “Let’s all come together and take this mission to new heights and make our country even more beautiful,” she said, exhorting her fans to do the same.
Manu Bhaker Appeals for a Cleaner India
Olympic medal winner Manu Bhaker also joined the campaign with a reel underlining the need for cleanliness. He averred, “Every small step we take brings us closer to a cleaner India. The time is now.” His words resonate that much better among the youth, thereby motivating them toward positive environmental practices.
Kailash Kher’s Commitment to Cleanliness
Kailash Kher, the popular singer lent himself to the ‘Swachhta Hi Seva’ campaign by distributing kits to sanitation workers during Sambhal Mahotsav. He asked citizens to take a pledge of cleanliness, saying that “In our country every Indian has taken the pledge of cleanliness.” His hand-in-glove approach epitomises the Swachh Bharat Abhiyan spirit, that has bridged the gap between knowing and doing.
One Voice for Change
Actor Amitabh Bachchan gave a voice to the mission, asking citizens to adopt ‘Swabhaav Swachhata-Sanskar Swachhata.’ His influence is critical since he is a name that commands respect and attention, looking across all demographics. Actor Ranganathan Madhavan added, “This mission has bettered sanitation around us, and it has altered the outlook of individuals.” The observation reeks of much bigger impact the mission has had on social attitudes toward sanitation.
A Brighter Future Ahead
Gandhi Jayanti 2024 becomes the background to these efforts. At its core, it reminds us of the need to acquire a future guided through good values within society. With such hopes being fulfilled by the collective efforts of the influencers in uplifting the cause of Swachh Bharat Abhiyan, the dream of a cleaner, healthier India gets closer with every passing day.
Swachh Bharat Mission is a culmination of effort toward building a nation in which citizens will be inspired to take ownership of their environment. Celebrating Gandhi Jayanti 2024, the mission, in itself, is not a campaign but a movement that cuts across borders; every Indian must join in for the greater good.
