UDUPI: What do Pradeep Sangwan from Gurugram, Haryana, and Anudeep Hegde and Minusha Kanchan, a couple from Baindoor in Udupi, have in common? Although they stay miles apart, the common thread linking them is their concern for the environment. It is this singular essence of Swachh Bharat Abhiyan that gave Pradeep, and Anudeep and Minusha a place in the last edition of Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s ‘Mann Ki Baat’ radio show for 2020, on Sunday.
A 100-second mention of their efforts in the 32.20-minute address put these cleanliness warriors in the national limelight. If Pradeep’s Healing Himalaya initiative, that he is running since 2016, grabbed Modi’s attention, the fact that the newly wed couple gave up their honeymoon to clean Someshwar Beach in Udupi district, saw the PM narrate their effort in a cleanliness paean, which he said was the essence of a clean India.
