Preaching cleanliness and supporting the BMC’s drive against open defecation, Salman Khan says we are the one who should be called ‘kachrawala’ and not the sweepers cleaning the city
Bollywood celeb Salman Khan has been roped in as the brand ambassador by the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC), also known as Municipal Corporation of Greater Mumbai (MCGM), for their anti-open defecation campaign. Salman Khan met the Municipal Commissioner Ajoy Mehta over the weekend and preached about cleanliness in the city. “We call the sweepers ‘kachrawala’, but it is us who are the ‘kachrawala’, as we throw all the waste in the open. Try doing the same outside India! We get scared to do any such thing abroad, we panic. Whereas in India, we openly throw waste outside, and increase the load on people tirelessly working for cleanliness. We need to control that,” opined Salman Khan. Taking advantage of Sallu’s huge popularity, the celeb and cinema world star’s face will be used in posters all across to promote the BMC’s campaign against open defecation.
