In sharp contrast to politicians posing for cameras with brooms at intentionally littered places, a video that is being widely shared online, shows Puducherry CM V Narayanasamy stepping into a drain barefoot and cleaning the waste.
The video was posted by the Chief Minster’s official Twitter account.

The activity was a part of the ‘Swachhata Hi Seva’ movement launched by Prime Minister Narendra Modi which came to a close on 2 October 2018 and Narayanasamy spent around 10 minutes clearing a drain near the Nellithope signal.
Narayanasamy Ji, kudos to you for leading from the front and inspiring others to strengthen the movement to clean India. https://t.co/z4Tdhu31eU
