In this initiative, people from different regions, languages and backgrounds will work together and the waste will be disposed of by these people on a completely voluntary basis.
Swachh Bharat 2022 is not just a program but a serious attempt to make people realize the importance of cleanliness. This will also contribute to the Happiness Index of the country.
