Sir,
This country / we are lucky that a legend, the most respected and a busy person like you is going to dedicate 50 hours for Swatchh Bharat.
I have suggestion here, as people (including me) treat you like God, they respect you and everyone listens to you.. they adhere to what you say and suggest, they obey your word. You should make more ads like ‘DontLetHerGo’. Make ads for TV, Radio, Social Media… and make people understand, What is the meaning of Swatchh Bharat. Ask everyone to take a pledge that every individual will not spread garbage.
Thnaks and Regards
