It was a hopeful act in October 2014 by the Prime Minister of India Narendra Modi to stimulate all Indian sweepers to take up a scheme to clean the country. And with this the market has witnessed a huge price surge for broom sticks! Nevertheless, even after two years streets of India remains unclean. The fish vendors, hoteliers, and street dwellers have made streets unsuitable for an evening walk.
And in support to PM's gesture former minister and Congress MP Shashi Tharoor joined campaign in a cleaning program at Vishinjam. The ex-minister who opts to stay in luxury hotels and find time to ridicule cattle-class flight travellers really surprised many. Tharoor holding a dead rat in his hand was viewed as endorsement of Modi's 'Swachh Bharat' campaign.
Tharoor now went into oblivion and no one is talking about Swachh Bharat. All fish- meat vendors abandoned their original sell place and flocked on public roadsides making the street a filthy hell.
