M Venkaiah Naidu might not be considered a great orator, but the analogies he uses tend to be interesting. Explaining the government’s recent move to demonetise Rs 500 and Rs 1,000 notes, he said that Prime Minister Narendra Modi had three missions in life: swachh mann (clean heart), swachh tan (clean body) and swachh dhan (clean money).

The goal of swachh mann is being achieved through programmes such as Beti Bachao, Beti Padhao, and that of swachh tan, through Swachh Bharat. Programmes such as demonetisation of certain currency notes would help achieve the goal of swachh dhan.
