Communications and IT Minister Ravi Shankar Prasad today released a set of commemorative postage stamps on Swachh Bharat.
Speaking on the occasion, he said that cleanliness was close to the heart of Mahatma Gandhi and to realise his cherished ideal there is a strong need to observe Swachhagraha just as Gandhiji had launched Satyagraha.
He also exhorted all citizens to participate whole heartedly in the Clean India campaign and to work strenuously to develop the culture of cleanliness and hygiene.
