The Prime Minister joined people from newer generations in the drive in a boost for the aim to achieve cleanliness.

Modi posted on X, "Today, on Gandhi Jayanti, I took part in Swachhata related activities with my young friends. I urge you all to also take part in some or the other such activity during the day and at the same time, keep strengthening the Swachh Bharat Mission."

Modi also urged citizens to take part in cleanliness related activities today, thereby strengthening the Swachh Bharat Mission, which completed 10 years on October 2, 2024.

In another post on X, the Prime Minister said, "Today, we mark #10YearsOfSwachhBharat, a momentous collective effort to make India Swachh and ensure improved sanitation facilities. I salute all those who have worked to make this movement a success!"

Earlier, the Prime Minister paid his tributes to Mahatma Gandhi.

"On behalf of all countrymen, salutations to Pujya Bapu on his birth anniversary. His life and ideals based on truth, harmony and equality will always remain an inspiration for the countrymen," he said.
