Before cleaning the streets, the central govt should clean their minds & hearts for Bharat to be swachh.

hahaha all thief sorry althaf ... i cannot see single burqa clad women or low grade athar special affect otte topi doing swach bharath program.... yesterday did u see swatch bharath initiative in madya pradesh , 8 parasites were cleared by spraying bullets ... adu onthara swacha bharath kanappa ... hahaha ... we are doing swatch bharath in kashmir also ... hats off to ramakrishna mission ...

Well done keep it up. Gud work by team. Masha allah.

Does MCC have paid staff for cleaning the areas? if so, where are they? only taking salary from tax money and sleeping at home.
Then, general public has to clean the filth?

Until We clear our dirty politicians and terrorists organisations like RSS,BD,Rama sene, Shivasene etc india will not be a clean country. All indians should join together to clean this Organisations.

No need to make politics by taking some photographs & advertising. I appreciate this work but not as one particular task to promote someone.
Being humans its our duty to keep clean & hygeine environment around all time. but above images shows clearly about particular xxx advertisement. It will not promote awareness, coz here this work is done only for taking for photographs & particular situation.
Hope it will continue regularly in village area where really need awareness....

An image of the bus ticket is also making rounds on social media, that shows the route of the bus — London, Belgium, West Germany, Austria,Yugoslavia, Bulgaria, Turkey, Iran, Afghanistan, West Pakistan, India. The route in India followed Delhi, Agra, Allahabad, Banaras and finally Calcutta.

The ticket shows that a one side travel cost 145 pounds (13,644 Rupees at the present day) back then, and it was inclusive of all the luxury provided during the run.

The luxurious bus provided the facilities of reading, individual sleeping bunks, radio/taped music for parties and pleasure and fan heaters, among other things. The brochure reads, "Your complete home while you travel."

Some of the tour highlights included Banaras on the Ganges, The Taj Mahal, The Raj Path, The Rhine Valley and The Peacock Throne. Passengers reportedly got free shopping days in New Delhi, Tehran, Salzburg, Kabul, Istanbul and Vienna.
