A former Indian environment minister once said that if there was a Nobel Prize for dirt and filth, India would win. The new Prime Minister, Narendra Modi, has made a big thing about changing that and has chosen one of the most important dates in the national calendar to launch his clean-up campaign: the birthday of India’s independence leader Mahatma Gandhi.

Having been scolded by Mr Modi already for their timekeeping, most civil servants were expected to give up what is a public holiday to clean up their own offices, even though it’s supposedly voluntary. Hygiene-related diseases remain one of the biggest killers of young children and a serious drag on India’s development.

While many experts have welcomed Mr Modi’s clean-up campaign, they say there’s still a long way to go.
