Mahatma Gandhi on his 150 birth anniversary in 2019,”
said Shri Narendra Modi as he launched the Swachh
Bharat Mission at Rajpath in New Delhi. On 2nd October

The Swachh Bharat Abhiyan is the most significant
cleanliness campaign by the Government of India. Shri
Narendra Modi led a cleanliness pledge at India Gate,
which about thirty lakh government employees across the
country joined. He also flagged off a walkathon at Rajpath
and surprised people by joining in not just for a token few
steps, but marching with the participants for a long way.
The Prime Minister has helped spread the message of
Swachh Bharat by urging people through his words &
action. He carried out a cleanliness drive in Varanasi as

This mission is headed by the Department of Drinking

been declared open defecation free, whereas 699 districts,
35 states including UT, have been declared open
defecation free and about 16,32,42,383 toilets have been

The main objective of Rural Swachh Bharat Abhiyan is to
promote cleanliness and develop healthy habits in people
in villages. People in rural India are not very much aware
of health and hygiene, which leads to several diseases
especially in children and it results in child mortality. Every
year the government spends lots of money on the
treatment of various diseases, caused by unhealthy
habits. So, it’s better to make people aware of health and
hygiene, as this will not only keep you healthy but also
save your money.

Main objectives of Rural Swachh

Bharat Abhiyan:
The Swachhta Abhiyan also contains special programs for
students. As we know children are the future of any nation
and they play a very important role in the development of
the nation because once they will adopt cleanliness as
their habit, the nation will grow clean. Keeping this in mind
the government started various cleanliness program.
The five-day campaign each day is
celebrated with a different theme:

1. Clean Schools / Surroundings / Play areas: This is

the theme for day one, in which students are taught
some cleaning habits and the importance of keeping
their school, surroundings and play areas including
home clean.
2. Clean Food: Cleanliness is not only about the
environment you live in, but it also includes the food
you eat, the water you drink and the toilets you use.
Each day has been segregated among all these
cleaning types and one of them is food. To develop
healthy eating habits, like to wash hands before and
after food and etc.
3. Clean Self, Personal Hygiene, Child
Safety: Personal hygiene is considered very
important because a lack of personal hygiene can call
various diseases, especially among children.
Therefore, personal safety is very important.
4. Clean Drinking Water: Just as we need healthy and
clean food, similarly we also need clean and sweet
water for drinking. We develop several water-
consumption methods to develop water harvesting
habits.
5. Clean Toilet: It is very necessary to use a clean toilet
because a dirty toilet can cause many diseases.
Main features of Swachh Bharat

Challenges of Swachh Bharat

Abhiyan

Cleanliness is really a challenge for the nation because we

have to work from the very beginning and there is a very
large population in India which lives in villages and it is
very tough to train them and let them know the benefits of
hygiene

which was indeed a big challenge but kudos to the leaders

it in green color. Also, develop healthy habits in your child.
By practicing these simple methods, we can contribute to

proves that nothing is impossible if you have the courage
and true determination for your dreams
