PM Modi cites Dehradun girl’s impassioned message on Mann ki Baat

A teenager poured all her disgust in a voice message to the Prime Minister over a stinky, garbage-choked river flowing close to her backyard in the Uttarakhand capital.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi liked 16-year-old Gayatri Singh’s explosive appeal for her right to live in a clean environment so much that he included the girl’s audio clip in the 30th edition of his Mann ki Baat monthly radio address on Sunday.

He complimented the class 11 student from Dehradun’s Ajabpur Kala area for flagging a public problem — the rain-fed, seasonal hill river Rispana, which has been turned into a meandering mound of garbage.

Modi quoted the girl’s message to draw people’s attention towards cleanliness, which is necessary for the success of his government’s signature programme, Swachh Bharat. He said her message should be an inspiration for all.

For her part, Gayatri thanked the Prime Minister for acknowledging the problem and highlighting it in his popular radio show.View more:-Bulk Sms Service provider

“He said ‘Gayatri has a lot of anger in her towards this pollution, and every citizen should have the same anger towards pollution, then only can the nation achieve cleanliness’,” she recalled.
