It was back in 2014 that P.M Modi had launched the Clean India Mission or Swachh Bharat Abhiyan and he got the award on the 150th birth anniversary of Mahatma Gandhi.
“No such campaign was seen or heard about in any other country in the recent past. It might have been launched by our government, but people took control of it,” said Modi after receiving the award.
