The Swachh Bharat Abhiyan was inaugurated by honourable Prime Minister on 2nd October 2014. Swachh Bharat Abhiyan or the “Clean India Campaign” is the biggest cleanliness drive in the country. The main purpose of the Clean India Campaign is to make India a dirt-free country in the next five years, to construct community and public toilets in rural and urban areas, to provide running water supply, to treat waste water, to keep roads, pavements and localities clean etc.

Over time, this initiative has been adopted and supported by many national bodies such as Ministry of Rural Development, Ministry of Urban Development, Ministry of Drinking Water and Sanitation, Public Sector Undertakings (PSUs), corporations, NGOs, state governments and business associations like Software Technology Parks of India (STPI). STPI, a business association of leading software companies took up the responsibility of carrying forward the national mission of a clean India.
