Meri Maati Mera Desh campaign to enter last phase with Amrit Kalash Yatras nationwide

The Meri Maati Mera Desh campaign will enter its last phase with Amrit Kalash Yatras nationwide. The Ministry of Culture said that multiple Ministries, State governments, Nehru Yuva Kendra Sangathan, and Central Armed Police Forces, are actively engaged in the monumental task of collecting soil from every household in villages and block levels.

The Ministry’s zonal culture centers have been organising cultural programs in rural areas across the nation to create awareness about the campaign and for better outreach. More than 3800 blocks have already organized it. The soil collected will be placed in Amrit Vatika and Amrit Mahotsav Memorial at Kartavya Path on the 31st of this month. The initiative marks the conclusion of the ‘Azadi ka Amrit Mahotsav,’ which commenced on March 12, 2021, for extensive public engagement through the organization of over 200,000 programs across India.
