Kanpur: President Kovind launched the Swachhta hi Sewa (Cleanliness is service) in Iswariganj, here. He also felicitated local people for making village Open Defecation Free. 

During PM’s Mann Ki Baat address on August 27, he had called upon people to create an environment of cleanliness across the entire country so that the coming 2nd October, the third anniversary of the Swachh BharatMission and Gandhi Jayanti, can be celebrated in a befitting manner.

The initiative, which is being coordinated by the Ministry of Drinking water and sanitation, will include “Shramdaan” or voluntary work and will focus on mass mobilisation and reinforce “jan andolan” for sanitation to contribute to Mahatma Gandhi’s dream of a clean India.
