Addressing the villagers, Ram emphasized that as citizens of a great nation, it is important to rise up to the Prime Minister's call and ensure that our surroundings are kept clean. He also echoed Modi's views that acoming together for cleanliness would be a fitting tribute to Mahatma Gandhi Bapu and working for a "New India'.
