New Delhi/ Bhubaneswar: Prime Minister Narendra Modi mentioned about Kamala Moharana of Odisha’s Kendrapada district while speaking about ‘Waste to Wealth’, an important dimension of Swachh Bharat Abhiyan, during his Mann Ki Baat(MKB) programme on All India Radio on Sunday.

Kamala runs a self-help group engaged in making baskets and mobile stands from milk pouches and other plastic packing materials.

“Kamala Moharana, a sister from Kendrapada district of Odisha, runs a self-help group. The women of this group make many things like baskets and mobile stands from milk pouches and other plastic packing materials,” the PM said.

This is becoming a good source of income for them along with ensuring cleanliness, he said.

“If we resolve, we can make a huge contribution towards a clean India. At least we all should take a pledge to replace plastic bags with cloth bags. You will see, how much satisfaction your resolution will give you, and also inspire other people,” he added.
