A lawmaker from India's Madhya Pradesh may have gone a bit too far with the federal government's "Clean India Mission" by opting to clean a washroom at a girls' school with his bare hands.
Janardan Mishra, a Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) MP from the state's Rewa district, posted a video of his act on Twitter, claiming that he cleaned the toilet as per a public program launched by the party's youth wing -- the BJP Yuva Morcha.
Meanwhile, netizens appreciated the toilet cleaning exercise.
"Mahatma Gandhi also used to do this often in Sabarmati.... I am proud of my MP and such positive work of cleanliness is like a challenge for today's hi-fi leaders," one social media user tweeted.
"Thank you very much! If the leaders serve the country like this, then the divide between the poor and the rich will also end. And you will continue to get the love of the people. you are the true leader," another added.
