Lakhs of students took the oath of cleanliness under the aegis of Nimitt Matar Charitable Society and created a world record

Cleanliness is a good habit that we should adopt for good health and healthy life. It not only leads to our health but also helps our society to move forward towards prosperity and development. Cleanliness is an important part of ensuring the prosperity and health of our society. Therefore, every person should be motivated to understand the importance of cleanliness and adopt it in their life. Every citizen of the country should take the oath of cleanliness to contribute to building a clean, healthy and prosperous nation.
