AMRUT 2.0:

On this occasion, PM Modi also mentioned about Babasaheb Bhim Rao Ambedkar. He said that people coming from villages to cities get work here but the environment in which they live is very pathetic. The second phase of the Swachh Bharat Mission is a step towards fulfilling the dreams of Baba Saheb.

PM Modi said that people in tribal areas complete their work with very less resources. There special care is taken of cleanliness. Despite being the CM of Gujarat, every effort has been made to connect people with this mission. Along with this tourism also increased in Gujarat. There is a big difference between before and now. Now waste is taken from homes and it is disposed on scientific basis. People give information about the dirt on the app. Now there has been a change in the thinking of the people.
