Minister of State (MoS) for Finance Anurag Thakur and Mathura MP Hema Malini took part in 'Swachh Bharat Abhiyan' in the Parliament premises on Saturday. The BJP MPs were seen sweeping the premises outside the Parliament with brooms while being surrounded by many security and other staff. However, as the video of the initiative was shared online, netizens were not thrilled. While some questioned the point of clearing a cleaned premise as the leaders were only seen sweeping a few scattered dry leaves, others opined that it was just for a photo-op. Many suggested the MPs should go down to places where cleaning was required.

A few users on Twitter also turned it into a meme. Here's what Twitterati had to say: Isn't parliament premises already super clean. Such photo ops are unnecessary & looks ridiculous. — Michael Corleone 🇮🇳 (@_GodfatherAndCo) July 13, 2019 Stupidity, not sure when they will stop all these fake drama in front of media! Keeping country clean, is the very basic responsibility of any government. Why it requires separate tax collected as Swachh bharat, then what for standard 30% tax collected, govt servants to eat? — Core Socio (@CoreSocio) July 13, 2019 Why inside Parliament premises?! They can get to the roads which are unclean and filled with garbage! Looks like they are playing hockey with a paper cup there! — Sanjeevee sadagopan (@sanjusadagopan) July 13, 2019 How come the premises of Parliament of India needs 100s of parliamentarians to clean it ? Is it kept that dirty .?? — Yo Yo Funny Singh (@moronhumor) July 13, 2019 People of India would be more happy if they go outside parliament premises and clean the roads. I guess there is no need to clean already cleaned premises. — Anshuman Jaiswal (@anshumansworld) July 13, 2019 Hema Malini Ji, There is no dearth of kachara in Mathura and Vrindawan.
