Hampi Cleanup Drive After FM's Visit
Hampi is a very old and important place that many people visit.
The local government leader, Kavitha S. Mannikeri, went around Hampi with her team to check how clean it is.
They did this because the Finance Minister of India, Nirmala Sitharaman, recently visited and noticed some places were not clean.
The leader gave instructions to make sure Hampi is cleaner and better taken care of, especially for the tourists who come to see this special place.
Vijayanagara District Deputy Commissioner Kavitha S. Mannikeri conducted a cleanliness inspection in Hampi.
The inspection was triggered by concerns raised by Union Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman during her visit.
Key focus areas included sanitation and civic facilities at tourist spots.
Instructions were given to address sanitation lapses and improve overall maintenance.
