PM Modi Hails Udupi Couple For Cleaning Someshwar Beach

A newly married couple from Udupi has won the heart of Prime Minister Narendra Modi. A service activity carried out by the couple Anudeep Hegde and Minusha Kanchan has reached Delhi from Udupi. This couple who hail from Baindoor near Udupi got married recently and were supposed to celebrate their honeymoon elsewhere. Instead, they engaged themselves in cleaning unwanted leftovers from the sea beach. They collected about 8 Quintals of garbage from the beach for disposal.

The concern shown by this couple towards nature had become big news. Now, Prime Minister Narendra Modi who spoke about the couple on his programme 'Mann ki Baat' had lauded the efforts of this couple during the course of his talk. The couple who responded to this has said that Modi's praise has inspired them to take up more such activities. BJP's state President Nalin Kumar Kateel visited the couple's residence to honor them.

"Hundreds of tourists come and pollute the beach with unwanted things. This happens at Someshwar beach also. But a couple by the name Anudeep and Minusha on their own will have come forward to clean the beach. Some more groups of youth who got inspired by this have joined hands with them and have succeeded in removing about eight quintals of garbage from this beach. This has to be really lauded," Prime Minister Narendra Modi had stated in his Mann Ki Baat talk.
