Prime Minister Narendra Modi congratulated Bharatiya Janata Party karyakartas for their efforts in Varanasi towards the Swachh Bharat Abhiyan.
The Prime Minister took to twitter to share his congratulations.
"A splendid effort towards a Clean India by BJP Karyakartas in Varanasi! #MyCleanIndia," he wrote, also posting pictures of their efforts.
Earlier in the day, BJP workers, along with the residents of Varanasi, cleaned the Asi Ghat and Raj Ghat in the city as part of the Swachh Bharat Abhiyan.
The members collected garbage littered on the banks and dumped it in dustbins. They also took up broom sticks and cleaned the roads and stairs that lead to the river.
