PM Modi launches Swachh Bharat 2.0, AMRUT 2.0; says 'focused on garbage-free cities'

Prime Minister Narendra Modi launched second phase of Swachh Bharat Mission-Urban 2.0 and AMRUT 2.0. During his address he said, "Toffee wrappers are no more thrown on floors but kept in pockets. Kids alert elders not to litter around. The youth are taking initiative. Some are earning wealth from waste, while some are creating awareness. There is segregation of dry and wet waste, there's awareness." He added, "The garbage mountains in cities will be processed and removed completely as part of Swachta second phase. One such garbage mountain has been in Delhi for long, it's also waiting to be removed".
