Ahead of Diwali, the government will flag off a mini marathon as part of its Clean Air campaign to raise awareness about air pollution.
It will be flagged off from India Gate on October 15, coinciding with the birth anniversary of former president Dr A P J Abdul Kalam.
The campaign is being launched to create a mass movement for reducing air pollution.
Taking forward the momentum of Swachh Bharat Abhiyan and extending the Harit Diwali-Swasth Diwali initiative, the "Swachh Hawa for Swachh and Swasth Bharat" campaign, is being launched by the Ministry of Environment.
The “Run for Clean Air” campaign is the harbinger of positive energy for Clean Air.
