Speaking on the occasion, Umanath Kotekar, Coordinator of Swacchata Abhiyan said, “It is a positive development to see that Swacchata Abhiyan is not just sweeping an area clean but a noble cause to bring together different people of similar noble intention and acting in unison for the good of the society. Bringing together these noble minds is a constant requisite for a noble society and Ramakrishna Mission here leading such initiatives is noteworthy.”

Sri Hanumantharayappa, Deputy Police Commissioner, Mangalore City participated as a chief  Guest spoke, “It is significant to note that all people without the least discrimination of caste-creed or colour are participating in Swacchata Abhiyan. All should inculcate cleanliness in their  households and then only we can dream of clean India.”
