Garbage spread on street purposely before BJP's 'Clean India' campaign in Delhi


New Delhi, Nov 7 (TOI): Prime Minister Narendra Modi's much-hyped 'Swachh Bharat Abhiyan' has been reduced to a sham by his own party leaders in the national capital.

BJP has been left embarrassed after photographs emerged of garbage being dumped purposely on a Delhi sidewalk for a photo opportunity featuring BJP Delhi unit chief Satish Upadhyay and former AAP leader Shazia Ilmi.

Some newspapers have carried photos of garbage being dumped minutes before Satish Upadhyay swept it clean with a broom outside India Islamic Cultural Centre (IICC) in Delhi on Wednesday as part of the Swachh Bharat Abhiyan.

Delhi BJP chief, meanwhile, has defended his participation in the programme and has blamed the organizers for the fiasco.

"It was a programme of the Islamic Centre, I had just gone their for few minutes,organizers should have taken care of it," Satish Upadhyay said reacting to the criticism.

He went on to slam the orgainzers and said, " completely condemn this, cleanliness drive is to be taken seriously & everyone should do it honestly."

BJP spokesman Sambit Patra, speaking to Times Now, said the Delhi unit chief was at the event as a guest and was not responsible for the action of the over-enthusiastic organizers.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi had launched the Swachh Bharat Abhiyan on October 2 and has roped in several celebrities across the country as part of his drive to clean the country.

    Swatch Bharath is a very good initiative and it is to be carried out by each and everyone to keep the surroundings clean. It should not be politicised but should be seen as a necessity and thank Modi for starting it nationwide.
    That is why such people are called leaders.

    Sir, as you have specifically stated, this "cleaning revolution" of India strategically planned to bluff the electorate is simply a prelude of the many other political promises yet to be fulfilled. What a terrible turn of events?

    Cleaning the dry leaves from a clean foot path is not the real cleaning job. Let these so called "cleaning political saints" be put into the dirty streets and slums of New Delhi at first to get the real view of dirty places, let them clean those places at first to prove their genuine sincerity in the newly emerged "cleaning revolution". Wonderful joke of the 21st century!

But he have to understand people of India not fools and he cannot cheat them anymore. He fooled the people by promising of Rs. 15 lakhs to everyone after bringing back the black money. Tat also failed. Modi is No.1 liar in this country. Stop this Swacha Bharat abhiyan drama across the country.

    Thank you Mr. Sanjeev Kamath, for inviting me to have a field day here but I won’t do anything of this sort. I have been blatantly accusing him of being a FEKU for the last one year and you guys were relentlessly defending him even after SC reprimanded him on two occasions. Today he is exposed and caught faking with pictorial proofs. At this juncture if I say something it would be like me flogging a dead horse. I am not a Modi hater or baiter but I know given the present political scenario, he is the only hope for India while his political opponents have already bitten dust. Modi’s intentions are noble but let him not get carried away with this sort of FEKUGIRI. Let us keep him in check or else he is going to be a disaster for the country because he will take us for granted and turn himself into a despot.
