With a view to conserve water for the future, PM Modi launched a new initiative named Mission Amrit Sarovar last year.

"This Karyanjali of cleanliness itself will be the true tribute to Gandhiji," the prime minister said.

"I would like to remind you again that on this occasion of Gandhi Jayanti, make it a point to buy some Khadi product," he added.

PM Modi also recalled how world leaders reached Rajghat together to pay homage to Bapu during the G20 Summit.

"This is a big evidence of how relevant Bapu's thoughts are even today across the world," he said.

"I am also happy that many programs related to cleanliness have been planned across the country on the occasion of Gandhi Jayanti. The ‘Swachhta Hi Seva Abhiyaan' is going on with great enthusiasm in all the offices of the Central Government. Significant participation is also being seen in the Indian Swachhata League," PM Modi said.
