Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis congratulated the NDTV Dettol Banega Swachh India campaign. Mr Fadnavis said that For the first time in the history of independent India, a people's movement for sanitation has been realised. In the past three years, over 60 lakh families in Maharashtra have been provided with toilets to make both urban and rural Maharashtra open defecation free. The government has also begun a campaign to motivate people to use the toilets to which they have access. The state begun regulation of plastic in the state, banning plastic which is not biodegradable and treat waste in 100 cities. The dream of India becoming a superpower will only come true if the country is cleaner, said Mr Fadnavis.
