On the birth anniversary of Mahatma Gandhi, Union Minister and Telangana BJP chief G Kishan Reddy highlighted the significance of cleanliness and public health in his address to the community. Reddy emphasized the role of the Swachh Bharat Abhiyan, a national cleanliness initiative launched by Prime Minister Narendra Modi ten years ago on this very day.
Speaking at a commemorative event in Hyderabad, Reddy remarked, “Today is the birth anniversary of Mahatma Gandhi. On this occasion, government and various organizations are conducting events today.” He acknowledged the enduring legacy of Gandhi’s principles, particularly the importance of hygiene and sanitation.
Reflecting on the impact of the Swachh Bharat Abhiyan, Reddy urged the public to actively participate in the initiative. “I urge the public that this program is for them, for everyone’s health,” he stated, reinforcing the idea that cleanliness is not just a government responsibility but a collective societal obligation.
The events organized to mark Gandhi’s birthday included various cleanliness drives and awareness campaigns, aiming to instill the values of hygiene and sanitation in communities across the state. Reddy’s call to action serves as a reminder of the ongoing efforts needed to improve public health standards and the environment, aligning with Gandhi’s vision of a cleaner and more equitable India.
As Telangana continues to engage in activities promoting cleanliness and health, Reddy’s message resonates with the broader goals of the Swachh Bharat Abhiyan, encouraging citizens to embrace the spirit of community service and responsibility.
