PM Modi said that no matter how much India achieves, it will always be difficult to lead the way if the country doesn't unite to attain Swachhta.
While inaugurating the Kashi Vishwanath Dham, Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Monday called on Indians to make three resolutions for the sake of the country: Swachhta (cleanliness), Srijan (creation) and continuous efforts for aatmanirbhar Bharat (self-reliant India).
In his address to those gathered at Uttar Pradesh's Varanasi for the inauguration, PM Modi said, "I want three resolutions from you, not for yourself, but for our country - Swachhta, Srijan and continuous efforts for Aatmanirbhar Bharat."
Stressing on the need for cleanliness, the Prime Minister said, "Swachhta is a lifestyle, Swachhta is discipline. No matter how much India achieves, it will always be difficult to lead the way if we don't unite to attain Swachhta."
He said that today "new India" is regaining its past glory. "Today's new India is showcasing to the world that when 1.3 billion people come together, nothing is impossible," he said.
