PM Modi, currently on a campaign trail to Karnataka, took time out to appreciate and admire the contributions of Mohini Gowda in the Clean India Mission.

“Such examples of people contributing towards PM Modi’s vision of Swachh Bharat Abhiyaan will act as a motivating force for others,” wrote one user on X.

Early in the day, PM Modi addressed a poll rally in Bagalkote and lashed out at the ruling Congress government while making a series of stinging jibes at it.

He said that Congress dispensation turned the state, a globally reputed tech hub into a ‘tanker hub’ and said that it was running an ‘extortion gang’ rather than a government.
