National Cleanliness Day (India)


 

National Cleanliness Day is celebrated in India every year on January 30 with the aim of promoting cleanliness and sanitation as a way of life. The significance of this day lies in its ability to raise awareness about the importance of maintaining cleanliness and the role of each individual in keeping the environment clean.

The history of National Cleanliness Day dates back to 2014, when the Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi launched the Swachh Bharat Abhiyan, a nationwide cleanliness campaign aimed at transforming India into a clean and hygienic nation. The campaign focuses on creating awareness about the importance of cleanliness and hygiene and encouraging citizens to take responsibility for keeping their surroundings clean.
