Nominated by Prime Minister Narendra Modi for the Swachh Bharat Abhiyan, the India Today Group launched the Safaigiri Summit and Awards 2015, which has identified champions, whether individuals or institutions, in 13 categories who will be awarded for their inspiring work. A jury of eminent citizens will select the champions. Safaigiri Summit and Awards is a platform that celebrates cleanliness champions across India who are engaged in innovative work. Safaigiri will be a daylong event telecast on all four India Today Group TV channels. It will share best practices in the area of cleanliness and have top visionaries honouring the chosen innovators. It's our attempt to motivate India to recognise cleanliness champions and learn from their example.
