Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Sunday urged people to maintain cleanliness to avoid the spread of dengue.

"Dengue is dangerous but prevention is easy... if we take care of cleanliness in small things," he said in his radio address Mann Ki Baat.

"We must not make death so cheap... Apathy to cleanliness becomes the invitation for death, this is not acceptable."
