Why do we always blame agencies. Indians love to litter. How may even chuck kachra in the dustbins. There are many like your mentality. i will litter let the kachrawalas clean, after all they are paid for it.

Amitji,
This country / we are lucky that a legend, the most respected and a busy person like you is going to dedicate 50 hours for Swachh Bharat.
I have a suggestion here, as people (including me) treat you like God, we adhere to what you say and suggest, we 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 Swachh Bharat or Swachhta and how every individual can make a difference. Educating people is very important. Ask everyone to take a pledge that every individual will not spread garbage.
Thanks and Regards
Sheetal

Great initiative…. Something really needed to be done in this front. The work is really challenging considering dealing with attitudes of people regarding cleanliness

spots like the one under the fly over near Mumbai pune taxi stand at dadar tt where almost a 1/2 ft muck has accumulated around all the taxis/cars parked are the first priority places to be looked into for maha cleanathon. and with a larger group of volunteers along with and allocated different spots in the city for the future drive to continue.
