Spreading Awareness On Health Habits Key For Swasth Bharat: Nitin Gadkari

Nitin Gadkari, Union Minister for Road Transport and Highways, said India needs to work on its levels of water pollution, noise pollution and air pollution to meet international parameters. He said noise pollution and air pollution are directly linked to his departments and that he is trying to bring down the use of petrol to 10 % and diesel to 25 % in the next five years through use of biofuels and encouraging electric vehicles. He stressed on the role of spreading awareness on how people need to adopt health habits. This awareness will benefit people, especially children, and this is how a Swasth Bharat will be formed.
