This year, Prime Minister Narendra Modi will interact with Pani Samitis under the government's Jal Jeevan Mission on Gandhi Jayanti from 10 am to 12 noon. The government will also organise gram sabhas across the country in a tribute to Bapu's vision of Gram Swaraj. It's a term coined by Mahatma Gandhi that aims to turn every village into a self-efficient autonomous entity with all facilities.
