2nd October 2014-2024 This Gandhi Jayanti, the 2nd October, we complete a decade of this mission in India. A time to take stock. First and foremost, that was the first time, we accepted that there is a need to improve upon cleanliness and hygiene. After the euphoria of initial years, where every celebrity could be seen with a broom, deeper meaning of Swachh Bharat Mission unfolded. It is not only about clean streets, there is a lot more to it. Creation of public toilets, solid waste disposal systems, toilets at rural homes and so on. A lot has happened but a lot more has to be done. Creating awareness and sensitivity in one and all still remains a challenge in a country of 1.4 billion. The cities which emerged winners in Swachh Bharat were the cities which could create a sense of pride in citizens, in turn improving civic sense. I had seen that happening in Indore. This sense of pride is infectious and Surat, Navi Mumbai also caught up. Let us hope more and more cities set example of cleanliness, waste management and public conveniences in coming times. #Swachhbharat #cleanliness #GandhiJayanti #changanagement

The Whispers of History: A Walk Through the City's Heart Meandering through the heart of the city, area, once the center of all political, economic, and cultural activities, you get a glimpse of the old city breathing new life in the modern air. It's like peeking into Delhi's past, with Lal Qila and Chandni Chowk whispering tales. Ahmedabad, India's first UNESCO World Heritage City, offers a unique experience after passing through its 'Pols', characterized by wooden homes with large courtyards and a well-organized layout. Observing these elements, I felt connection to how the great Harappan people might have lived. Today, when I visited my city's "city area", widely known as the 'Sanskari Nagari' and the cultural capital of Gujarat. I show how the Maratha history lingers here, a whisper in the wind beneath the sprawling banyan trees. Grand palaces, remnants of a bygone era, peek out from every corner. The famous lake, Sur Sagar, near the music college, houses the gold-plated statue of Lord Shiva in a standing position. But here's the real magic: my city isn't just about humans. The Vishwamitri River shelters a thriving population of crocodiles, sharing this space in perfect harmony. It's a beautiful reminder of how deeply intertwined we are with the places we call home. These streets, these stories – they shape us, just as we shape them. #oldisgold #learingfrompast #explore #discover #hiddengems #incredibleindia
