Narendra Modi had initiated the Swachh Bharat Mission on 2nd October, 2014. The Mission was to make India clean by 2nd October, 2019. Since 2nd October, 2014, the Government had invested a lot of energy and resources to achieve this mission. A nation is not built by its Government but by its people. So, it is very important to raise the awareness among them about the vision of clean India and its significance. The best way to make people aware of an issue is by involving the kids and children. Thus, National Academy of Customs, Indirect Taxes and Narcotics, Zonal Campus, Kolkata aims at those kids falling between 5 years and 18 years of age by way of involving them in this propitious drive through a drawing competition.
