A video of the Prime Minister Narendra Modi picking up litter at the newly-launched tunnel at Pragati Maidan has gone viral on social media on Sunday. In the video PM Modi is seen picking up a discarded water bottle and other pieces of trash with his hands while he inspected the tunnel. The Prime Minister has always stressed on keeping the surroundings clean.
Tweeting a video of this, Amit Malviya, said, “Commitment to cleanliness is an article of faith for the Prime Minister. Even at the inauguration of the ITPO tunnel, he made it a point to pick up garbage and lead by example."
Back in October 2019, PM Modi, during his tour in Mamallapuram for an informal summit with Chinese president Xi Jinping, had released a video of his morning walk ritual on his Twitter profile.
In the footage, he could be seen picking up plastic bottles, plates and other garbage which was thrown on the beach outside the Taj Fisherman’s Cove Resort and Spa from a beach in Mamallapuram while jogging.
