Jhala village gets Recognition in PM Modi’s Mann Ki Baat for Environmental Efforts

Prime Minister Narendra Modi has highlighted the remarkable environmental conservation efforts of Jhala village of Uttarkashi district in Mann Ki Baat programme on Sunday. The village, through its Youth Welfare Committee, Women’s Welfare Committee, and active local participation, has launched an innovative cleanliness initiative called the “Thank You Nature Campaign,” aimed at raising environmental awareness and promoting sustainable practices.

PM Modi praised the villagers’ efforts, emphasizing that the campaign is a significant step toward environmental conservation and sustainability. He encouraged the entire nation to adopt similar initiatives in every village, stressing the importance of responsibility toward nature and youth-led environmental protection.

Dhanyavad Prakriti Abhiyan: An Environmental Milestone

The “Dhanyavad Prakriti Abhiyan” campaign was launched on July 8, 2024, under the leadership of village head Smt. Surja Devi and Youth Welfare Committee president Abhishek Rautela. The initiative involves daily cleaning drives in Jhala village and its primary market, Payara. The villagers dedicate two hours each day to collect garbage from the streets and dispose of it in designated areas outside the village, ensuring cleanliness and waste management.

The campaign has not only resulted in a cleaner village but has also heightened environmental awareness among the villagers. The effort was especially praised for its ability to involve the community in nature preservation, making Jhala a model for other villages to follow.
